The Playground

I love the playground

Where you can spin round

Where you're allowed to shout

Scream in the playground

No one will call you out

You're just a child

Only for a while

One spin of the dial

Takes you a mile away

Give us a smile

If you're feeling wild

You'll be a child today

I love the playground

The lights of the fairground

The lightness of our hearts

Don't tell me to slow down

I've got to let it out

Shall we go dive in

The pool, so inviting?

Are you just surviving

Or are you still thriving too?

Won't you take delight in

The fact you're a child in

A world in which nothing's new?

Where is the playground?

Nowhere to spin out

I shout but there's no sound

I've lost the playground

Is this a blackout?

We are a child

Only for a while

You spun the dial

And I flew a mile away

Give me a smile

I wanna be wild

Can I be a child again?

Can I be a child again?

I love the playground

I love to sing out

Where is the playground?

It's calling me now
