And it was morning and I found myself mourning
|
For a childhood that I thought had disappeared
|
I looked out the window
|
And I saw a magpie in the rainbow, the rain had gone
|
I’m not alone, I turned to the mirror
|
I saw you, the child that once loved
|
The child before they broke his heart
|
Our heart, the heart that I believed was lost
|
Hey, you surprised? |
More than surprised
|
To find the answers to the questions
|
Were always in your own eyes
|
Do you realize that you could’ve gone back to her?
|
But that would only be retraced in all the problems
|
That you ever knew, so untrue
|
For she’s got to carry on with her life
|
And you’ve got to carry on with yours
|
So I see, it’s me, I can do anything
|
And I’m still the child
|
'Cause the only thing misplaced was direction
|
And I found direction
|
There is no childhood’s end
|
There is no childhood’s end
|
'Cause you are my childhood friend
|
'Cause you are my childhood friend
|
Oh, lead me on
|
Hey you, you’ve survived, now you’ve arrived
|
To be reborn in the shadow of the magpie
|
Now you realize that you’ve got to get out of here
|
You’ve found the leading light of destiny
|
Burning in the ashes of your memory
|
You want to change the world
|
You’d resigned yourself to die a broken rebel
|
But that was looking backward
|
Now you’ve found the light
|
You, the child that once loved
|
The child before they broke his heart
|
Our heart, the heart that I believed was lost
|
So it’s me, I see, I can do anything
|
I’m still the child
|
'Cause the only thing misplaced was direction
|
And I found direction
|
There is no childhood’s end
|
There is no childhood’s end
|
There is no childhood’s end
|
I am your childhood friend
|
Oh, lead me on |
