Permanent Playground

 

Try to remember

the days when you were young

try to look at life with child-like eyes

and the world that you live in will become

a permanent playground

 

There will be many new games

that your heart would like to play

but are only meant for those who dare

the sky is the limit for the brave

and the fearless

 

So if you want to play along

take rise to the occasion

hold on to ev’ry dream

don’t let it slip away

it’s easier said than done

you’ve got to take your chances

life’s too short and precious

to be wasted

 

But if you think I know the answers

it took me years to learn

years that I’ve wasted

they’re gone and lost forever

it’s an easy thing to say

I sure found out the hard way

life’s too short and precious

to be wasted
