March of the Gherkins

It's been some time since the smile upon my face
Had a sneak preview in town, it's been a while since I gave chase
It's been some time since the girl from round my way
Came and took me by the hand and a long time since I came around

I can remember when I stood on my head
And walking straight across the ground, still picture the laughing faces

Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Catch me, the deeper the louder the laugh

I was told to grow up soon, face my consequences
Being told it was high time, high time to come to my senses
Climbing up to the top floor, stood the look of pleasure
Such a silly aged man with an attic full of treasure

Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Deeper, the deeper the louder the laugh

Remember when I was ten, things were somewhat better then
Time went by so easily, is this the way life's supposed to be?
But looking back I wonder why it seems to pass so quickly by
Memories can make you cry, I close my eyes, my tears I try to hide

I was thinking about Tammo Land
Of all the funny places, I was thinking a short time ago

Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Catch me, the deeper the louder the laugh
Catch me, I'm falling into my past
Deeper, the deeper the louder the laugh
