Late in summer staring out the window |
|
Only seven, tell me what could she know |
|
The world would never understand |
|
But they don't see what she still can |
|
What does she see, what does she know? |
|
And must she ever just let go |
|
As childhood dreams, childhood dreams |
|
What is childhood? |
|
Something we remember |
|
Rarely, barely sometimes in |
|
DecembersBut then it's known to catch our eye |
|
And dare us all to once more try |
|
And with a childhood faith believe |
|
And that magic to retrieve |
|
As childhood dreams, childhood dreams |
|
Childhood, childhood |
|
Childhood, childhood, childhood |
|
Childhood, childhood, childhood |
|
Childhood, childhood dreams |
|
Softly fading, tell me where the years go |
|
I am aging but she does not think so |
|
Her world of possibilities |
|
As far as childhood eyes can see |
|
And must one day she just decide |
|
To step off of this childhood ride |
|
As childhood dreams, childhood dreams |
|
Only seven, as she sits and wonders |
|
Late at night as the world, it slumbers |
|
But suddenly inside the dark |
|
She sees the magic of the sparks |
|
And so she knows she must go down |
|
To see this world that she has found |
|
As childhood dreams, childhood dreams |
|
Childhood, childhood |
|
Childhood, childhood, childhood |
|
Childhood, childhood, childhood |
|
Childhood, childhood dreams |
