i wanna' be
a kid agin'
to see things begin'
agin'

i wanna' crawl
then stand tall
and tho i might stall
i wanna' learn to walk
& learn to talk
a word or two
yeah, that'd do

i wanna' ride a trike
and then a bike
that i'd like
and when i teeter & fall
to have my mom answer my call

i wanna' play ball
baseball
basketball
football
i wanna'play 'em all
winter, summer, spring & fall

i wanna' smell the grass
lie at night under the stars
and watch time pass
dreamin' 'bout goin' ta' Mars
or the Moon
"really, really soon"
i wanna' climb a tree
just ta' see what i see
i wanna' be
a kid agin'
to go back then
when was when

i wanna' run
out in the Sun
just havin' fun
playin' cowboy & injun'
with a toy gun
be the Good Guy
or be the Bad
wanna' think i can fly
wanna' not be "adult" sad
not think about what i already had

i wanna' laugh & smile
while all the while
i face my "kid's" trial
i wanna' have a kid's style
i wanna' run a mile
or walk to the end of the block
and not hear the clock
"tick-tock","tick-tock"...

i wanna' look in the sky
and wonder "why?"
the sky is blue
i wanna' not have a clue
about the next thing
i need to do
i wanna' sing
melodies & harmonies
i want there to be no histories
only a Life full of Mysteries

i wanna' play
outside all day
at whatever comes my way
i wanna' say
"i love you"
and it be true
i wanna' do
what kid's do

but, if i can't be a kid agin'
then
i want to begin
to see
the kid in me
i wanna' find that special part
i wanna' always be
a kid at Heart
