I walked one more time down that old track
Where I played when I was a child~
Life had its moments but it was sweeter then
Peoples hearts were kind , their tempers mind~
Now there's so much trauma about
And a world of daily strife~
But I walked down that track one more time
And dreamt of my past and a better life~
How where I walked was just not the same
How so many changes had taken place~
But still in my memory I could see it all
The way it all was , In my childhood space~
Oh how I loved to run , play and climb here
And how I loved the people I knew back then~
How sad I feel its all gone now
As I walked down my old track agen~
It ran along the river side
Under willows that hung low~
So peaceful and so beautiful
How I loved it down here so~
But time changes everything in life
It leaves nothing at all alone~
And here I walk down my childhood track
Below the mountains in my childhood home~.
