When I was Younger

Do you remember, when I was younger
When I thought that time went by so slow
and couldn't wait,to be a year older
when i only cared if the wind would blow

Do you remember, when i couldn't wait
to make my own decisions; my own rules
but now, time flies by; makes me want a gate
that turns back time; wouldn't that be cool

Mom, I'm almost grown up now, but I so
don't want to be. I wish that i could still
be the kid who thought time was a foe
because she always had spare time to kill

Now to me time is just a greater foe
cause soon away is where I'll have to go
