Take me back is a song that reflects the freedom, happiness, hope and joy we enjoyed in our childhood, especially the dependence on our guardian or parents.
I know some may object and say that their childhood was traumatic.
I'm so sorry if your childhood was traumatic, but I can place a bet that many of us if placed an offer of adulthood or childhood, we'll still choosechildhood.
Childhood comes with many memories, time spent with our child hood friends which even comes with a mark in our brain that we want to be forever young.
This could have been possible if mother nature would allow. But each minute, we're all a step closer to the grave.
Time is finite and irreplaceable, its the most expensive commodity.
I personally shared some personal experience of my childhood in the lyrics which I believe many of us would relate to.
You remember when the sound of rain gives you joy because you can play under it especially when your parents are not home.
Do you remember? When your friends take turns to gather in each and everyone houses to play?
Do you remember? When the sounds of bell, be it break time from school, closing time or jingle bells meant it's time for fun?
And now it's sad, we don't even talk anymore, we don't play anymore...
Reality has kicked in and there's a saying that 20 friends can't play together for 20 years.
Sigh!
Remember, time is finite and irreplaceable. So, spend it wisely
LYRICS
I sat in front of a mirror
Reflecting myself
As time goes in
What could have been better
Ticktok the sound from a clock
The rhythm all around me
The passerby footsteps
Reminds me time fades away
Huuuuu huuuuu
Huuuuu huuuuu
I remember when all my friends
Gathered in my house to play with me
Please take me back
Take me back
I remember even the rain
Means it's time to play
It time to have some fun
Please take me back
Take me back
I remember when the sounds
Of bell meant its time to
Catch some fun
Please take me back
Take me back
And now it's sad
We don't talk anymore
We don't play anymore
Reality kicks in take me back
Take me back
Huuuu huuuuu
Huuuu huuuuu
"Time is finite and irreplaceable so spend it wisely"
