Lyrics

In my favourite ice cream shop
The tiles are black and white
The cases have the cones on top
And a swirl of colour inside

And every time that I go in
I feel like I am eight or ten
I’d like to be a child awhile again

Chorus
The world just unfurled itself each day
You never had to worry
When your job was just to play
Sticks and stones
And running home
With dandelion bouquets
I’d like to be a child awhile again

In my earliest memory
I'm in the house next door
Sitting on my grandpa's knee
As he holds me in his arms

A penny on a railroad track
Now count to ten as I look back
I’d like to be a child awhile again

Chorus

Bridge
It really doesn't matter how old I am
I can travel back in time
Scraped up knees and trees to climb

Chorus
