Youssou N'Dour - Li Ma Weesu lyrics

My past always comes back as in a mirror Sometimes I look back to my past life With regret or pride When I'm around the children I love, they dance and I guide them and I express myself in such a way that I want to be a child again and never grow older The longer I stay away, the more forgetful I am The older I grow, the more I look back to the past and want to be a child again My past always comes back as in a mirror Sometimes I look back to my past life With regret or pride When I'm around the children I love, I feel happy again They dance, I guide them and express myself in such a way that I want to be a child again and never grow older The closer I am, the farther I feel The farther I am, the closer I feel The longer I stay away, the more forgetful I am The older I grow, the more I look back to the past and want to be a child again My past always comes back as in a mirror
