Lightyear



looking back it's hard to think
just when my life became a blink

out on the porch i'll reminisce
the simple life i'd start to miss

see-saw, swings and swimmin' pools
at westside park i had the wool
pulled down tight over an eye
for snowball fights my friends and i

some say the right years
now they're just light years away
some hold them quite dear
now back at square one to stay

we tempted fate in every way
and from the trails we'd often stray
to find ourselves deep in the woods
while mom and pop did all they could

life won't leave you alone
now the feeling's gone
when you find yourself
skipping stones
anymore alone
