The Memories Stir

Here and now the memories stir

Of childhood days free of care

If only I could revive the year

And find myself again there

 

Oh to laugh and play again

Sans the weight that rests on me

I would know joy by name

And forget my years so easily

 

Here and now the memories stir

Of first kisses and hideaways

To see as a child now and here

I would be young all my days

If I could live as a child plays
