Getting Back

I'm happy for the things I've done,
The loves I've lost,
And the one I won,
And that's the way the way I feel.

I used to wish for bigger things,
A shining star from which to swing,
I still dare to dream a little dream.

Do you remember when all this began,
Back when getting some,
Meant holding your hand?

Good things come to those who wait,
The world's still round,
And the cheque's still late,
and nothing's changed in a real long time.

I waited every winter's day,
I welcomed you like the flowers of May,
Into my arms to hold me closer.

Do you remember when all this began,
Back when getting some,
Meant holding your hand?

We'll live to love another day,
Forgiveness is the only way,
Of getting back the innocence.

I'm still getting back the innocence,
I'm still getting back the innocence.
