Back when I was just a child, chasing time, In our old neighborhood, steeped in grime. We’d bask in the day, lost in play, Laughing and dancing the world away. Used to have a girl, sweet as summer wine, Kept my heart beating, kept me in line. But life's like a record, plays its own song, She moved with the rhythm, I just played along. Made it through the struggles, played my own tune, From the darkest nights to the brightest noon. Look into the mirror, see the story unfold, Back When The Groove Was Gold. {end}
