I returned to my hometown yesterday
and my life before my eyes came flashing back
Everything was changed and the faces look so strange
sometimes I wish that I was young again

CHORUS

And if I close my eyes think on back to happy times
I could be 16 years old for awhile
Honest friendships, high school dances innocence short romances
Life was simple but it sure was good somehow

Then we drove to an old beach last night
a place we used to go not long ago
Walking barefoot in the sand
I saw to people holding hands
Falling in love for their first time

CHORUS

Now I'm older I guess a little wiser
experience is added to my name
But I can't help but feel that I traded apart who I am along the way

CHORUS twice
