The song is somewhat cryptic, but I agree that it's a song about an adult looking back on his childhood. The words of the song are simplified to what his inner child has to say about becoming an adult.
It also implies a sense of homesickness from the adult's perspective, wishing to go back to the happy innocent sheltered life of a small child.
