I was looking at my daughter
On her new bike that I bought her
Every second she was falling.
In the evening very proudly she came calling
"Iam big now!" is what she tolde me.
She could cycle and she showed me
And I say a glimpse of me there
Riding around in grandma's garden long ago
Back in time, I wish I could go back in time
The clock is ticking much too fast
It's easy if you do not know
Those days will never last
Back in time, I wish I could go back in time
When people kept the pain away
If I could only be a kid for just one day
People always try to please you.
People always hug and squeeze you
When you're little, life's exciting
Sp the thought of growing up becomes inviting
Then you struggle till you get there
And you realize that you're nowhere
So you're wishing for your parents.
They're the only ones
Who've never let you down
I was looking at my daughter
On her new bike that I bought her
It was early, it was raining.
It was time to go to school,
She was complaining
"I don't want to" is what she told me.
She was pouting and trying to hold me
And I saw a glimpse of me there
And I knew that life was easy after all!
