歌词

[00:01.24] This is the world I meant
[00:04.65] Couldn't you listen?
[00:08.41] Couldn't you stay content?
[00:12.47] Safe behind walls, as I could not
[00:25.90] Now you know what's out there in the world
[00:37.03] No one can prepare you for the world, even I
[00:48.32] How could I, who loved you as you were
[00:56.15] How could I have shielded you from her or them?
[01:15.09] No matter what you say
[01:19.47] Children won't listen
[01:23.43] No matter what you know
[01:26.70] Children refuse to learn
[01:35.11] Guide them along the way
[01:39.03] Still they won't listen
[01:42.90] Children can only grow
[01:46.05] From something you love
[01:49.85] To something you lose
