Dreaming of Wallace.

What is this mad desire that I feel to reconnect to the past? There must be some unfinished business from those days of yore.. OK, here is the scoop, Last night I had a dream about Wallace and in particular, about some of my classmates from my graduating class. This is a dream that comes up several times a year. I have a secret confession to make. I loved school. Sometimes I wish that I could go back in time and hide in those old classrooms in the old Wallace High.

I suppose this desire derives from the simple reason that life was so simple then. It really was. I miss the school. I miss my classmates, and I miss some of the teachers.

Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories

Got my bag, got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that "All aboard"

Seven, that's the time we leave, at seven
I'll be waitin' up for heaven
Countin' every mile of railroad track
That takes me back

Never thought my heart could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam?
Gotta take that sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home

Sentimental journey!
