Lyrics
I wish that I could go
I long for the ability to return
Back to all the times
To previous moments
When nothing mattered
When nothing held significance or caused worry
When momma read us books
When my mother read stories to us
And daddy played us games
And my father engaged us in games
We were together
We were united
When dinner brought us food
When meals provided nourishment
And each chair had a name
And each seat had a personal identity
Do you remember
Do you recall?
The pictures on that wall
The images displayed on that wall
The memories and all
The recollections associated with them
I still remember
I still retain those memories
So take me back when I
So transport me to a time when
Was worry free and promise me that
I experienced no anxiety and assure me that
Til' the day I die
Until my demise
These memories won't ever leave, no
These memories will persist, never fading
There's nothin' I can say or do
There's nothing I can articulate or execute
To bring me back the real you
To restore the authentic version of you
And all I got are just these memories and lonely dreams
All I possess are these memories and solitary aspirations
So take me back in time
So transport me back to a period
When you were there to comfort me
When your presence reassured me
I wish that I could walk down
I desire to navigate
Those halls again
Those corridors once more
And you would be there
And find you there
Feel alive again
To feel invigorated once again
But something more like then
But something akin to that time
When we were younger
When we were youthful
So take me back when I
So transport me to an era when
Was worry free and promise me that
I experienced no anxiety and assure me that
Til' the day I die
Until my demise
These memories won't ever leave, no
These memories will persist, never fading
There's nothin' I can say or do
There's nothing I can articulate or execute
To bring me back the real you
To restore the authentic version of you
And all I got are just these memories and lonely dreams
All I possess are these memories and solitary aspirations
So take me back in time
So transport me back to a period
When you were there to comfort me
When your presence reassured me
You were there to comfort me
You were there to console me
And everything was okay
And everything seemed fine
I wish you were here
I desire your presence
