Lyrics

It's been sometime since the smile
Upon my face
Had a sneak preview in town
It's been a while since I gave chase
It's been sometime since the girl
≫from round my way
Came and took me by the hand
It's been a long time since I came around

I can remember when i
Stood on my head
And walking straight across the ground
I still picture the laughing faces

Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Deeper, the deeper the louder the laugh

I was told to grow up soon
Face my consequences
Being told it was high time
High time to come to my senses
Climbing up to the top floor
Stood the look of pleasure
Such a silly aged man
With an attic full of treasure

Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Deeper, the deeper the louder the laugh

I remember when I was ten
Things were somewhat better then
Time went by so easily
Is this the way life's supposed to be, but
Looking back I wonder why
It seems to pass so quickly by
Memories can make you cry
I close my eyes, my tears I try to hide

I was thinking about
Tammo land
Of all the funny places
I was thinking a short time ago

Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Deeper, the deeper the louder the laugh
Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Deeper, the deeper the louder the laugh
