"Goin' Back" lyrics

"Goin' Back"
(feat. Beck)
(originally by Dusty Springfield)
(from "Echo In The Canyon" soundtrack)


I think I'm goin' back
To the things I learned so well
In my youth

I think I'm returning to
Those days when I was young enough
To know the truth

Now there are no games
To only pass the time
No more electric trains
No more trees to climb

But thinking young and growing older
Is no sin
And I can play the game of life
To win

I can recall the time
When I wasn't ashamed to reach out
To a friend

Now I think I've got
A lot more than just my toys
To lend

Now there's more to do
Than watch my sailboat glide
And every day can be
My magic carpet ride

A little bit of courage
Is all we lack
So catch me if you can
I'm goin' back

Now there's more to do
Than watch my sailboat glide
But every day can be
My magic carpet ride

A little bit of courage
Is all we lack
So catch me if you can
I'm goin' back

A little bit of courage
Is all we lack
So catch me if you can
I'm goin' back
