📜 Lyrics
When I was younger, I thought I would be
A great explorer of possibilities
As I got taller
The world got smaller
When I was younger, I thought I'd become
The queen or a doctor
I could have been anyone
As I got older
Reality took over
Take me back to the great big world
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
Take me back to the open road
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
To the great big world
Now I'm a grown up
It's harder to dream
Stuck to my phone and responsibilities
I can't escape it
Is the future fading?
Take me back to the great big world
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
Take me back to the open road
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
To the great big world
What do I know, what do I know, what do I know?
Why do I still long for the great unknown?
What do I know, what do I know, what do I know?
Why do I still long for the great unknown?
What do I know, what do I know, what do I know?
Why do I still long for the great unknown?
Just for a moment I see through your eyes
Just like an omen, I start to realize
It's not all tragic
Life's full of magic
Take me back to the great big world
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
Take me back to the open road
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
To the great big world...
A great explorer of possibilities
As I got taller
The world got smaller
When I was younger, I thought I'd become
The queen or a doctor
I could have been anyone
As I got older
Reality took over
Take me back to the great big world
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
Take me back to the open road
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
To the great big world
Now I'm a grown up
It's harder to dream
Stuck to my phone and responsibilities
I can't escape it
Is the future fading?
Take me back to the great big world
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
Take me back to the open road
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
To the great big world
What do I know, what do I know, what do I know?
Why do I still long for the great unknown?
What do I know, what do I know, what do I know?
Why do I still long for the great unknown?
What do I know, what do I know, what do I know?
Why do I still long for the great unknown?
Just for a moment I see through your eyes
Just like an omen, I start to realize
It's not all tragic
Life's full of magic
Take me back to the great big world
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
Take me back to the open road
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back
To the great big world...
