Like the child I was once before
It’s so hard to knock on your door
Words of hurt said that day made it easy
To walk away… to just walk away.
 
Before we know days turn to months
Years that follow go soon enough
Roads we follow have laughter and tears
To make us stronger... with all our fears
Through all these years.
 
And people pass and children grow
Take me back to Holland Road
Going back… I’m going back to Holland Road.
 
Your embrace I remember well… the loving warmth of your smell
Wish I’d seen you one last day
Before you left and went away… just one last day.
 
And people pass and children grow
Take me back to Holland Road
I’m going back… I’m going back to Holland Road.
 
He seems older now you’re gone
Hardly seems to move along
How long’s it been… where does time go?
Where does time go… how quick it flows… how quick it goes.
 
I wish I’d seen you one last day before you went away
I wish I’d seen you one last day… before you left and went away.
 
And people pass and children grow
Take me back to Holland Road
I’m going back… I’m going back to Holland Road
Going back… going back… I’m going back now
Going back… going back
I’m going back to Holland Road… I’m going back.
