Kindergarten Heart

Sparkle, sunny days
I get older in every way, that won't matter
Kindergarten heart in me
Magic, green and blue
I am wilder in every way that I choose

Dogpile, funny faces
I'm fragile in funny ways that are piling on with age
Old time souvenirs of a gold mine of greener years
And I'm trying, but I get it wrong
So I back down from the fight
When there's nothing left to bite but my own tongue

Castles, sand and snow
Build a fortress, a mighty home in your elbows, knees and toes
Bare feet, barely kissing, my sole's sweet
This summer's all that I know

Broad smile, funny faces
I'm fragile in funny ways that are piling on with age
Old time souvenirs of a gold mine of greener years
And I'm trying, but I get it wrong
So I back down from the fight
When there's nothing left to bite but my own tongue

Oh my stars, I am nothing but a shark
I have nothing but a head in my heart
I've been working late
I got too much on my plate
So, it's looking like it might be time to spark

Oh my stars, I am nothing but a shark
I have nothing but a head in my heart
I've been workin' late
I got too much on my plate
So, it's looking like it might be time to spark
That kindergarten heart
