Childhoods End? Songtext
von Fish

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
