I can shut my eyes and listen
To the soothing sounds
Of sensual jams surround
The imperial townscape
Reminisce on the sweetest things I miss

The dynamic days of being
An adolescent with no concern in the world
No bill collectors harassing me over a dollar
No major obligations to handle
No everyday occupation that makes
You feel like you are going crazy
Steady staring at the clock
Wishing it would move faster

I like to remember the times
When I used to play monkey
In the middle, hide and seek,
And kickball with my cousins
Giggling and gleaming
Jumping and running
Chilling and feeling
The carefreeness swiveling around us

There was so much more to look
Forward to in those unforgettable times
Awesome wonderment, sold-gold glows
Strolling down the broad and picturesque streets
Talking about life and dreams
All the things that made our hearts run wild
