rate me

Chorus (first time without background vocals): This used to be my playground [used to be] This used to be my childhood dream This used to be the place I ran to Whenever I was in need Of a friend Why did it have to end And why do they always say Don't look back Keep your head held high Don't ask them why Because life is short And before you know You're feeling old And your heart is breaking Don't hold on to the past Well that's too much to ask (Long and movie versions only:) (chorus) Live and learn Well the years they flew And we never knew We were foolish then We would never tire And that little fire Is still alive in me It will never go away Can't say goodbye to yesterday [can't say goodbye] (chorus) No regrets But I wish that you Were here with me Well then there's hope yet I can see your face In our secret place You're not just a memory Say goodbye to yesterday [the dream] Those are words I'll never say [I'll never say] This used to be my playground [used to be] This used to be our pride and joy This used to be the place we ran to That no one in the world could dare destroy (Short and movie versions only:) This used to be our playground [used to be] This used to be our childhood dream This used to be the place we ran to I wish you were standing here with me (Movie version only:) This used to be our playground [used to be] This used to be our great escape This used to be the place we ran to This used to be our secret hiding place This used to be our playground [used to be] This used to be our childhood dream This used to be the place we ran to The best things in life are always free Wishing you were here with me
