I've been searching, back over the mountains of time,
Back to those golden days,
When we were free running barefoot and wild;

Look at your children, and look at the world through their eyes,
They're just little pilgrims,
They've still got the stars in their eyes;

BRIDGE:
The sun makes that golden light,
That lights up the infinite sky,
Gotta stop looking over your shoulder,
Gotta wipe all those tears from your eyes;

CHORUS:
Don't waste your time regretting,
We could have done everything much better,
We can never give up trying,
Everything is gonna heal in time,
People talking 'bout thin reprisals,
The signs are clear but they're just denials,
Your kids are depending on you,
Little pilgrims need lots of love;

You know some things never change,
The world keeps on turning around,
Back in the good ol' days,
Life was just a big merry-go-round;

It's a journey,
Over the halcyon miles,
Sometimes we lose our way,
And sometimes it seems so futile.

BRIDGE:
The sun makes that golden light,
That lights up the infinite sky,
Gotta stop looking over your shoulder,
Gotta wipe all those tears from your eyes;

CHORUS:
Don't waste your time regretting,
We could have done everything much better,
We can never give up trying,
Everything is gonna heal in time,
People talking 'bout thin reprisals,
The signs are clear but they're just denials,
Your kids are depending on you,
Little pilgrims need lots of love
