if I were a child
I would be playing
with a hose in the backyard
getting all wet
not caring about clothing
enjoying the water
when you are older
you start to forget
that life was once different
and more at ease
you learned everyday
as you jumped into leaves
if I was a child
that's what I'd do
and I'd try to be
best friends with you
if I were a child
sometimes I'd be crying
when life would hand me
a bit of bad news
but then I'd be happy
wide-eyed and laughing
the world outside me
had ways I could choose
like time at the TV
or playing outside
or games where everyone
runs, jumps and hides
if I was a child
the world would be new
and I'd try to be
best friends with you
