Wonders of the Younger

[Verse 1]
Race-cars and spaceships and carnival rides
Ghosts in the graveyard that come out at night
These are the wonders of the younger

[Verse 2]
Daydreams of castle and sad crystal balls
While your heroes on posters stand guard on your walls
These are the wonders of the younger

[Chorus]
And I wonder why we just leave it all behind?
And I wonder how we could all go back right now?

[Verse 3]
Werewolves and vampires are out for the kill
If none of them get you, the Bogeyman will
These are the wonders of the younger

[Verse 4]
Walkin' the plank off an old pirate ship
With a fistful of gold and her kiss on your lips
These are the wonders of the younger

[Chorus]
And I wonder why we just leave it all behind?
And I wonder how we could all go back right now?

[Bridge]
Click your heels, close your eyes
Make a wish, wave goodbye
Fly away, it's not too late
Change your mind

[Verse 5]
Now numbers and figures take up all my time
How did this much of my life pass me by?
I miss the wonders of the younger
