Lyrics

[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
