2009 from New Journey by Lisa Li

I wanna go back, 2009
To see the kid that I missed
How she smiled and how she cried
All the feelings in her life
I wanna see the world she sees
To be free and innocent
How she tried and how she grew
All the things in her eyes
Oh I miss her
She’s so cute and sweet
Oh I love her
Although now she’s imperfect
I wanna back, two thousand nine
Whisper to that kid these stories of mine
How’s the world‘s like when she grows up
So darling please don’t rush
I wanna see their faces when they were young
just like it was yesterday
This song's too short, my words are too weak,
To say how much they mean to me.
Oh I miss her
She’s so cute and sweet
Oh I love them
They’ve always been so good to me
Darling stay that way
The world is too dangerous
Darling stay with them
And grow up slowly
