I'd like to be a child again
So many things to do
Playground noise, and colored toys
And everything brand newI'd like to be a pirate ship
In search of hidden gold
On ocean waves that swim away
And sail around the worldWhere, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
Where, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friendI'd like to be a soldier
A general I would be
In battle and in glory
With ten thousand men to leadI could be most anything
There is so much to see
I'd live a different story
If you were next to meWhere, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
Where, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friendWhere, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
Where, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friendI could be most anything
There is so much to see
I'd live a different story
If you were next to meWhere, where
Where, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
Where, where were you
When I needed you most
When I needed a friend
