Thinking Back...

Do you remember
back when you were young
and believed in miracles
and mystical, magical things?
Every day, electric
as the hum around your head
would keep you up night
with feet squriming in the bed?

and today is not any different
perhaps it is you who's changed
sometimes the days flow fast together
and that's not strange

Do you recall the weather
the day that you were born?
i think not but it tells the tale
Stormy Mondays
and childhoods full of thunder
make you wonder just what this life entails

and today is not any different
perhaps it is you who's changed
sometimes the days flow slow together
and that's not strange

Do you remember
all the things your mother said,
do they go around in circles in your head?
She tried to tell you
but how could she explain?
so she lived the best life for you
that she could instead

and today is not any different
perhaps it is you who's changed
sometimes the days flow as they should
and that's not strange...
