Back To Then

Sounds like everyone's already talking about

Where they'll be at five years from now

But it never dawned on me how close that is

And I know I'm not yet that old in age

And there's still many years left to my name

But those years seem to go faster the older I get

Time marches on, it's a matter of time

'Fore we all get gone, but I never realized how soon that could be

And I know it happens naturally

But if there was a fountain of youth, you'd find me splashing around

'Cause these years are flying, I can't hold 'em down

I swear, if I could, I'd do it all again

Take me back to then

Well, I'm glad I can't see what the future holds

So it's a surprise as I get old

And a mystery it is 'til the day I go

Hopefully, my best days are yet to be

But I know those old days will be hard to beat

'Til then, I'll sit back and just enjoy the show

The clock doesn't pause for anyone

Just keep living out your minutes 'til your days are done

No, it doesn't hold up for anything

Time just moves on naturally

But if there was a fountain of youth, you'd find me splashing around

'Cause these years are flying, I can't hold 'em down

I swear, if I could, I'd do it all again

Take me back to then

If there was a rewind button like a TV set

I'd be pressing that thing every chance I'd get

Just to make sure I didn't miss something when

It took me back to then

And if there was a fountain of youth, you'd find me splashing around

'Cause these years are flying, I can't hold 'em down

I swear, if I could, I'd do it all again

Take me back to then
