Children Say - Level 42[00:00:00]
I keep to myself what I might share with others[00:00:39]
But they don't seem to understand[00:00:43]
I open my mouth to rediscover[00:00:47]
That I don't have the words at my command[00:00:51]
Holdin' out for a world so much better[00:00:56]
But I'm a stranger in a stranger's land[00:00:59]
All my friends have sold out [00:01:03]
Couldn't handle the pressure[00:01:05]
Countin' their blessings [00:01:08]
Tryin' to salvage what they can[00:01:10]
Children say children say[00:01:13]
"We open our minds as one"[00:01:16]
But one more day slips away[00:01:21]
Why don't the dreams of the young[00:01:25]
Never come to be [00:01:27]
When I overhear my parents' conversations[00:01:29]
Well I'm struck by the things they say[00:01:33]
It seems they traded the years[00:01:37]
For mere complications[00:01:39]
Who ever thought it could end this way[00:01:42]
They close the door but they can't lock it[00:01:47]
'Cause somethin' of their childhood remains[00:01:50]
And they've felt it before [00:01:54]
When the man in their pocket[00:01:56]
Counted the cost of their material gains[00:01:59]
Children say "Come what may[00:02:04]
Be strong for the friends you've known"[00:02:07]
But one fine day far away[00:02:12]
Can we remember the love we used to own [00:02:16]
Children say children say[00:02:20]
"We open our minds as one"[00:02:24]
As one more day slips away[00:02:28]
Why don't the dreams of the young[00:02:33]
Never come to be [00:02:36]
Well you knew what I was sayin'[00:02:58]
But did you know what it meant [00:03:00]
When you saw that look in my eye[00:03:02]
Did you know it was heaven sent [00:03:05]
Was it all a wakin' dream [00:03:07]
All that time we must have spent[00:03:08]
Well I guess it must have been[00:03:11]
Somehow that feelin' came and went[00:03:13]
Children say "Come what may[00:03:15]
Be strong for the friends you've known"[00:03:19]
But one fine day far away[00:03:24]
We remember the love we used to own[00:03:28]
Children say children say[00:03:32]
"We open our minds as one"[00:03:36]
As one more day slips away[00:03:41]
Why don't the dreams of the young[00:03:45]
Never come to be [00:03:47]
And all children say[00:03:57]
Children say children say[00:04:07]
And all children say[00:04:14]
Children say children say[00:04:16]
Hear just them say[00:04:22]
Children say children say[00:04:24]
All children say[00:04:31]
Children say children say[00:04:32]
