Sentimental summer
In the alpenglow
I dug up my old buried treasure
Vowed to keep it close
Till I'm grown
Till I'm grown
Now I'm grown
Oh, simple thing of the past
Oh, it never lasts
When I was younger
I was a fool
Wished on a star
Waltzed with the moon
Now that I'm wiser
It's hard to pretend
I only wish to be a fool again
In the meditation
Searching for a home
I surrender, then I remember
The feeling of hope
Till it's gone
Till it's gone
Now it's gone
Oh, simple thing of the heart
How have I strayed so far?
When I was younger
I was a fool
Wished on a star
Waltzed with the moon
Now that I'm wiser
It's hard to pretend
I only wish to be a fool again
I know it isn't over
But what a mountain to climb
The sweat and tears on my face
Are just a reminder, God, I'm alive
Oh, there's still time
When I was younger
I was a fool
Love didn't come with regrets or with rules
Now that I'm wiser
Weathered and spent
I only ever wish
To be a fool again
