Playground Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come with me to a place of fantasy
I'll take you on a see-saw
Come with me to a place it's by the sea
I'll take you on a board walk
Take my hand I'll take you to the sand
You and me will build a castle
Ready, set, go I'll race you to the wall
I will win I am the fastest

[Chorus]
I don't wanna grow old
Bring me all the toys you can find
You don't wanna grow up
You can be my partner in crime


[Verse 2]
I'll be sure to write you from the war
Put your guns away it's tea-time
Water bombs and tea towel tired mums
Looking for a little "me" time

Close your eyes and count to thirty-five
You may never ever find me
Close my eyes and then I realize
You are never far behind me
[Chorus]
I don't wanna grow old
Bring me all the toys you can find
You don't wanna grow up
You can be my partner in crime


[Chorus]
I don't wanna grow old
Bring me all the toys you can find
You don't wanna grow up
You can be my partner in crime


[Bridge]
Let's have fun, let's play out under the sun
Will you take me by the hand?
Let's see how far we can run, yeah
Let's play chase, let's put makeup on our face
You can catch me if you can
We can make a secret place
Meet me at the playground

(Let's have fun, let's play out under the sun)
(Will you take me by the hand?)
(Let's see how far we can run, yeah)
Come with me, fool around
(Let's play chase, let's put makeup on our face)
(You can catch me if you can)
(We can make a secret place)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
