Lyrics The Playground - Douglas Dare

I love the playground
Where you can spin round,
Where you're allowed to shout.
Scream in the playground,
No one will call you out.
You're just a child
Only for a while,
One spin of the dial
Takes you a mile away.
Give us a smile,
If you're feeling wild
You'll be a child today.

I love the playground,
The lights of the fairground,
The lightness of our hearts.
Don't tell me to slow down
I've got to let it out.
Shall we go dive in
The pool, so inviting?
Are you just surviving
Or are you still thriving too?
Won't you take delight in
The fact you're a child in
A world in which nothing's new?

Where is the playground?
Nowhere to spin out,
I shout but there's no sound.
I've lost the playground,
Is this a blackout?
We are a child
Only for a while,
You spun the dial
And I flew a mile away.
Give me a smile,
I wanna be wild.
Can I be a child again?
Can I be a child again?

I love the playground,
I love to sing out,
Where is the playground?
It's calling me now.

I love the playground,
I love to sing out,
Where is the playground?
It's calling me now.

I love the playground,
I love to sing out,
Where is the playground?
It's calling me now.

I love the playground,
I love to sing out,
Where is the playground?
It's calling me now.
