Child In Time

Let me be a child again
And taste that sweet innocent glee
Let me be a child again
With a wide wondrous gaze
Let me be a child again
With simplicity as my decree
Let me be a child again
Running amuck and free
Let me be a child again
On the first day of a summer holiday
Let me be a child again
When all money meant was sweets and toys
Let me be a child again
Inhaling freedom with every step
Let me be a child again
And bask in my mother's lap
Let me be a child again
And play cricket with a plastic bat
Let me be a child again
Belly laughs and unstiffled giggles
Oh, Let me be a child again
Let the child be me
