Goin’ Back Lyrics

I think I'm goin' back to the days
When I was young enough to know the truth
I think I'm gonna turn to the things
I learned so well in my youth

Now there are no games to only pass the time
No more electric trains, no more dreams to climb
Thinking young and growing older ain't no sin
I can play the game of life to win

I can recall the time
When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to my best friends
Now I think I've got
A lot more than just these toys to lend

Now there's more to do than watch myself walk by
When every day can be a magic carpet ride
Little bit of courage is all we lack
So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back
Little bit of courage is all we lack
So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
