Lyrics

Do you remember growing up
The world just seemed so large
Though we had no clue what we were gonna do
You were always the one to take charge

We’d creep around the garden
Like soldiers on manoeuvres
Then we built our own assault course
Challenged ourselves for the fastest time
On space hoppers

Whatever happened to them
I haven’t seen one in years
Like pogo sticks and action man
Things seem very different today

We didn’t have computers
Or even mobile phones
We were free to play and free to roam
So long as we made it back home

In time for tea,
Angel delight for me
Fish shaped like fingers
The memories still linger
Do you remember

Nice nostalgic song. I remember those days well. Often gone all day on my bicycle. Thank you for sharing.

Sweet and so personally nostalgic. I can so be in the same space, with the same things and the same activities (apart from the food - we grew all our own). Brought back good memories - thank you.
