Childhoods End?
(专辑: Misplaced Childhood - 1985)
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 realise that you give it on 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 'Cos the
only thing misplaced was direction And I
found direction There is no childhood's end You are my childhood friend, lead me on Hey you, you've survived. Now you've arrived To be reborn in the
shadow of the
magpie Now you realise, 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 'Cos the
only thing misplaced was direction And I
found direction There is no childhood's end I
am your childhood friend, lead me on
