Wonders Of The Younger

Race-cars and spaceships and carnival rides
Ghosts in the graveyard that come out at night
These are the wonders of the younger
Daydreams of castle and sad crystal balls
While your heroes on posters stand guard on your walls
These are the wonders of the younger
And I wonder why we just leave it all behind?
And I wonder how we could all go back right now?
Werewolves and vampires are out for the kill
If none of them get you, the Bogeyman will
These are the wonders of the younger
Walkin' the plank off an old pirate ship
With a fistful of gold and her kiss on your lips
These are the wonders of the younger
And I wonder why we just leave it all behind?
And I wonder how we could all go back right now?
Click your heels, close your eyes
Make a wish, wave goodbye
Fly away, it’s not too late
Change your mind
Now numbers and figures take up all my time
How did this much of my life pass me by?
I miss the wonders of the younger
