Another car running fast Another song on the beach I take a trip through the past When summer's way out of reach Another walk in the park When I need something to do And when I feel all alone Sometimes I think about you [Chorus] You take my hand Smile and say you don't understand To look in your eyes and see what you feel I then realize that nothings for real 'Cause you know it's just your imagination running wild Another bucket of sand Another wave at the pier I miss the way that I used to call the shots around here You know it would have been nice of I had something to do I took a trip through the past And got to spend it with you [Chorus] 'Cause you know it's just your imagination running wild
