lyrics

Oh how i wish i was just a baby
Because life back then was just so fascinating
Now adays im finding just mildly entertaining
There is no one here next to me singing
Niklas you can be anything

And oh how i wish i was just a child
Digging holes in sand, rolly pollies runnin wild
Oh how can i get back to those days
Where my greatest fear was worrying
whats for dinner?

Playdates, secret handshakes
Tag and hide and seek
being told when to sleep
birthday parties with my friends
pillow fights silly arguments
crying over these scroaed knees
Needing my mama next to me

Oh how i wish i was all grown up
Cause that called responsibility looks like fun

handball champs
bullshit history class
cheating on the track
oh why cant i go back
to those days
when time didnt seem to pass
cause this present and always as fun as the past

Oh how i wish i was just a baby
Because life back then was just so fascinating
Now adays im finding just mildly entertaining
There is no one here next to me singing
Niklas you can be anything
