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 have 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
|
'Cos the only thing misplaced was direction
|
And I found direction
|
There is no Childhood's End
|
There is no Childhood's End
|
Cos' you are my childhood friend
|
Cos' 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
|
'Cos 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
|

Childhood's End?
