As a child I was running free

Like a leaf in the wind

The days seemed endless

No worries then

There was no ball and no chain



I look back on those days with a yearning in my heart



Land of forgotten dreams



As we grow older, our hearts turn cold

We're no longer running free

Live our lives in captivity

Now we're chained to the ground



But I look back on those days with a yearning in my heart



Land of forgotten dreams



[SOLO]



As a child I was running free

Like a leaf in the wind

The days seemed endless

No worries then

There was no ball and no chain



I look back on those days with a yearning in my heart



Land of forgotten dreams



Land of forgotten dreams
