To Thee I Bid Farewell

Flipping on the tele watch cartoons all day Making the toys come to life in your own way You were only six and had no fear or care Your imagination's vast just like the universe Like a distant dream But not forgotten A moment's gleam That can't be spoken It's over now So long, farewell I wish I could stay with you But time won't just pull us through The days in the sun The times we had fun Where nobody else can see The bond that we shared, you and me Remembering the time when I had bright ideas "Mom, I'm gonna build a time machine!", I said I was small but I had big ambitions then Now I think that's only fools who play pretend You were so naive Lost in your world If I could turn back time And just remain there It's over now So long, farewell I wish I could stay with you But time won't just pull us through Those days are long gone Adulthood has dawn But I'm glad I was in your shoes If I ever was good, it was you
