Beautiful blues, and pinks, and purples, and greens
Please take me back
Back to when I was free
The sun as hot as the hottest coals
Beautiful skies that would touch your soul

Please take me back to the river at night
The fireworks bursting with fluorescent lights
My worries and cares were no longer there
It was you and me, down at the fair

Please take me back to being with you
You don’t know how much I miss you, you haven’t a clue
My best friend, my mentor, my mother
You were there for me when I had no other

Please take me back to times without the drugs
Without the smoke and the tar filling your lungs
They hurt me so bad
But you never saw
You left my emotions beaten and raw
