Child's Play

I sit and mourn the silence,
Between you and I
Watching darkness bloom like thunder,
In eyes as blue as sky
Oh, and in one moment,
Our childhood was gone
Memories bled like birdsong,
In the quiet before the dawn

Nothing could ever be the same
And I thought back on a summer's day

Dancing in the sun by that river
Huddled by the campfire as we shiver
Lazy days of youth, how we never thought we'd lose,
That magic feeling of everything being golden
Oh now my heart feels like a swallow
And into those daydreams I follow
Ah, those mountain fields,
In the wildflowers we would kneel
Oh how I wish to be in the clouds again

Like so many broken bridges,
Fractured are those days
Memories of our summer mornings,
Now have turned to grey
Oh, to be a child,
Before I knew who you really are
From those summer days,
How could we have strayed so far?

Dancing in the sun by that river
Huddled by the campfire as we shiver
Lazy days of youth, how we never thought we'd lose,
That magic feeling of everything being golden
Oh now my heart feels like a swallow
And into those daydreams I follow
Ah, those mountain fields,
In the wildflowers we would kneel
Oh how I wish to be in the clouds again

In winter I cast you away,
In summer, my heart aches
Maybe that cruel sun reminds me of our child's play
