I keep to myself what I might share with others but they don't seem to understand I open my mouth to rediscover that I don't have the words at my command holding out for a world so much better but I'm a stranger in a stranger's land all my friends have sold out couldn't handle the pressure counting their blessings trying to salvage what they can Children say - children say we open our minds as one but one more day - slips away why don't the dreams of the young never come to be When I overhear my parents conversations well I'm struck by the things they say it seems they traded the years for mere complications who ever thought it could end this way they close the door but they can't lock it Songtexte'cause something of their childhood remains and they've felt it before when the man in their pocket counted the cost of their material gains Children say - come what may be strong for the friends you've known but one fine day - (not) far away will we remember the love we used to own Children say - children say we open our minds as one as one more day slips away why don't the dreams of the young never come to be Well you knew what I was saying but did you know what it meant when you saw that look in my eye did you know it was heaven sent was it all a waking dream all that time we must have spent well I guess it must have been somehow that feeling came and went Children say - come what may be strong for the friends you've known but one fine day - (not) far away will we remember the love we used to own Children say - children say we open our minds as one as one more day - slips away why don't the dreams of the young never come to be Children say - children say we thought it would never go as one more day - slips away who ever thought we could be so lonely Aus Songtexte Mania
