What Are The Lyrics For Playground By David M. Bailey?
It's been 20 years since I've been on this playground
This place has seen a lot of change The monkey bars and swings, the sandbox and the rings Seems like everything's been rearranged The merry -go-round is in the middle The seesaw was moved to the side The grass where we looked for 4-leaf clovers Has been covered by a giant plastic slide So I'm sitting on this bench just reminiscing About the years when all I had to do was play When I could make a moment last forever And I could fit forever in a day Since then, a lot of things have happened I've been around the world a couple times I've watched us go to war, not always known what for I've seen us all commit every kind of crime So I wonder if I've turned into a cynic If growing up means giving up your joy Just for a moment, I let myself imagine That once again, I'm just a little boy Cuz then I'd prob'ly go right to the sandbox And ask if they had space for just one more Then play hide and seek along the banks of the creek Buy baseball cards at the general store But instead I to the old pavilion Where the parents sit with a watchful eye Everything looks different from their viewpoint I get confused when I feel like I could cry Maybe this place hasn't really changed at all It's still whatever children make it be There's a little dark-hired boy teasing all the girls And I swear he looks a lot like me As I watch the sweet commotion, I feel a strange emotion I catch a glimpse of truth that looks so strange It's my turn to go through what everybody goes through And realize that I'm the on who's changed. I check my watch and can't believe the time The afternoon is coming to a close I sit down on a swing; throw my head back in the air And celebrate what my heart now knows. |
