I wish I were young again,
To view everything with an appreciative eye like I used to,
When the world always seemed so new.
I wish I were young again,
To think the way I used to,
When everyone looked morally good to me.
I wish I were young again,
To see others as I used to,
When I did not judge on sight and resort to conclusions.
I wish I were young again,
To live a life so beautiful,
When I desired nothing but simple things.
I wish I were young again,
To enjoy the period of innocence I once had,
When I did not have to try too hard just to be myself.
