Remember back when everything was simple,

When you had nothing to worry about?
Remember the innocence everyone had,

That puppy face you gave?

Remember when everything was done for you,

Mom and Dad our best friends?
Remember that special stuffed animal

Who kept those bad dreams away?

Remember that adorable outfit or shoes,

You would always wear?
Remember all the TV shows that soothed you,

Like the Powerpuff Girls or Elmo?

Remember the silly songs you would make up

Just to see who would laugh?
Remember that special language we talked in,

That only we knew?

Remember the colorful Band-aids our moms gave us,

Whenever we got boo-boos?
Remember when tattling on others around us,

Was like gossiping today?

Remember how all we wanted was to grow up faster?

How we couldn’t wait?
Looking back now, it seemed like so many years ago,

Let’s just wish for one more day.
