INTRO: X 2 VERSE: Lookin’ back on my younger days Life was a play and the world a stage Lust love and greed were in my heart I thought I had to play each part I’d skip school and get in a fight Had a different girl every Friday night But it all came out in the wash Dad always said boys will be boys PRE-CHORUS: And Mom and dad backed me through it all Picked me up each time I’d fall In fact they called it growing pains And said all kids must try such things CHORUS: They kept the faith and brought me through I still make a mistake or two Lookin’ back on my younger days Life was a play and the world a stage VERSE: I lost my driver’s license twice For speeding and running red lights But like all kids I lived and learned Play with fire and you’ll get burned I bucked the system day and night Smoked cigarettes and tried the wine Thought breakin’ rules was bein’ cool It’s clear to me now I was a fool PRE-CHORUS: And Mom and dad backed me through it all Picked me up each time I’d fall In fact they called it growing pains And said all kids must try such things CHORUS: They kept the faith and brought me through I still make a mistake or two Lookin’ back on my younger days Life was a play and the world a stage TAG: Yeah everything turned out ok Life was a play and the world a stage OUTRO: ( 2X and FADE)

Cette chanson évoque les souvenirs de la jeunesse, où l'auteur se remémore les jours insouciants et tumultueux de son adolescence. Il parle des erreurs typiques que font les jeunes, de l'importance des parents qui l'ont soutenu malgré ses écarts, et de la façon dont ces expériences ont façonné son caractère. Le discours souligne que, même avec des choix discutables, ces leçons de vie sont essentielles pour grandir. Le contexte tourne autour de la réflexion sur les étapes de la vie, sur le passage de l'enfance à l'âge adulte, en passant par des moments de rébellion et des difficultés, mais finalement, tout cela se transforme en une belle mémoire. C'est un hommage à la résilience et à l'amour parental qui aide à traverser les tempêtes de la jeunesse.
