I'm Going Back

Im going back to see the place where I come from
I can't wait to get back there,
It's been too long
I'm going back to stay

I wonder if what shape the old house will be
I wonder if my friends will still remember me
I'm going back,
Going back to stay

I can't wait to knock upon that old front door
To see that face again
That's what I'm waiting for
I'm going back to stay

The kids all playing games
Under the lamp post light
While mothers on their doorsteps
Standing door all night
I'm going back,
Going back to stay

Some people tell me that I must be mad
To give up what I got for what I had
I don't know there ain't no knowing
But I don't care
Because I'm going back

I'm going back,
Going back to stay

I know when I get back to where I'm going to
I'm gonna picture all the things I used to do
I'm going back to stay

In my imagination once more I will be
A kid again
And that's enough for me
I'm going back,
Going back to stay

Some people tell me that I must be mad
To give up what I got from what I had
I don't know there ain't no knowing
But I don't care
Because I'm going back

I'm going back,
Going back to stay
