I've been a hero
A villain too
I've conquered worlds
But this is past by now
I'm not the things
I've ever wanted to be
I can't be what others would say 'no'
And who would ever say
That one day I've been so much more
Than the people let me be?
Time's gone by
Grown up, I have
The kid's imagination will be no more...?
But why should I care
About what they think of me?
Why leave to no one
This great space to act?
The grand stage
Feeling the magic of childhood again
The grand stage
Letting that freedom flow
Without the pain
The grand stage
To be the actor playing every role
The grand stage
To live moving on my soul
And who would ever say
That one day I've been so much less
Than life lets me be?
Time's gone by
Grown up, I have
And still to find in me there is so much more
Why should I care
About what they think of me?
Why leave to no one
This great space to act?
The grand stage
Feeling the magic of childhood again
The grand stage
Letting that freedom flow
Without the pain
The grand stage
To be the actor playing every role
The grand stage
To live moving on my soul
