Back to the Start

Verse
Hanging out in the vacant lot where I used to play,
Kicking stones on the sidewalk, dreaming my days away.
Life was simple, the air was sweet,
No weight on my shoulders, just the world at my feet.
Now I’ve been through it all, seen the highs and the lows,
But lately, I feel like I’m back where the river flows.

Pre-Chorus
It’s funny how time takes you 'round in a spin,
You lose yourself, then you find your way in.
And what I thought I’d left so far behind,
Was waiting for me at the end of the line.

Chorus
I’m going back to the start, where the road was wide,
When I carried my dreams with the wind on my side.
Now I’m older, but I feel the same,
As the boy who ran free in the summer rain.
Life’s a circle, it’s funny that way,
You find liberation when you let go today.
I’m going back to the start, where the heart is light,
'Cause it’s never too late to be young inside.

Verse
I remember the days when love felt brand new,
Every song on the radio was meant just for you.
Now the wrinkles show, and the hair’s turning gray,
But inside I’m still dancing the night away.
I chased all the things that never could last,
But here in this moment, I’m free from the past.

Pre-Chorus
It’s crazy how life takes you far and wide,
You lose your way, but you never lose the ride.
And what I’ve learned, as the years go by,
Is that youth never really says goodbye.

Chorus
I’m going back to the start, where the road was wide,
When I carried my dreams with the wind on my side.
Now I’m older, but I feel the same,
As the boy who ran free in the summer rain.
Life’s a circle, it’s funny that way,
You find liberation when you let go today.
I’m going back to the start, where the heart is light,
'Cause it’s never too late to be young inside.

Bridge
I’ve walked every path, I’ve tasted success,
But it’s the simple things that mean the best.
Like a hand to hold, or a laugh that’s shared,
Or knowing that someone, somewhere still cares.
Now I’m back to where it all began,
With an open heart, and a simpler plan.

Chorus
I’m going back to the start, where the road was wide,
When I carried my dreams with the wind on my side.
Now I’m older, but I feel the same,
As the boy who ran free in the summer rain.
Life’s a circle, it’s funny that way,
You find liberation when you let go today.
I’m going back to the start, where the heart is light,
'Cause it’s never too late to be young inside.

Outro
I’m going back to the start, with a smile so wide,
Letting go of the weight, leaving nothing to hide.
In the end, all we need is a heart that’s free,
To be young once more, just you and me.
