I Spoke as a Child

Everyone has days like I'm having,
Holdin' on to anything that I can,
To keep myself from anything but laughing,
Looking back as far as I can stand.
Out my window, Winter is almost over,
I can no more see the sun behind these clouds,
Lookin' back on where I was one year ago today,
Laughing at the shape I'm in now.

CHORUS:
When I was a child, I spoke as a child.
But, all I heard was how I should get ahead.
Now, growin' up, it ain't anything, but,
All this indecision --
With these debts and doubts
And, worries hangin' over my head.
When I was a child, I spoke as a child.
I wish I could remember what I said.

I'd like to find that old-time feelin',
Somewhere in between what I've become.
Somewhere down the line, it must have seemed appealing,
So, I suppose that it must work for some;
But, I wanna go back to going crazy...
Believing every word that I was told,
You know, sometimes, growing up,
I think I'm getting wiser;
And, then, other times, I think I'm getting old.

Repeat CHORUS

When I was a child, I spoke as a child.
God, I wish I could remember what I said.
