Wonders of the Younger

Race-cars and spaceships and carnival rides Ghosts in the graveyard, they 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 catch you, the Boogeyman will These are the wonders of the younger Walk in the plank of an old pirate ship With a fistful of gold and 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 and 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
