[Verse 1]
Days floating 'round the bend
Through the rainbow's end
Return to forever
Nights ring around the moon
Ending all too soon
Return to forever

[Bridge]
When we reach the autumn's bend
Will we wish that we were young again?
Laughing in the face of time
If only we knew now what we did then
Ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
Clouds billow 'cross the sky
Changing as they fly
Return to forever
Waves rush to kiss the shore
Once and nevermore
Go back, return to forever

[Bridge]
How I wish that you were mine
And we could live again that summertime
To be that happy just this once again
If only we felt now as we did then
Oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
[Outro]
Child holding out your hand
Please try to understand
Return to forever
Return to forever
