When I Was a Child
When I was a child
I let my mind run wild
I thought that time expired
And now, what then?
So I let you in
I let you in again
When I was growing up
I tried to have my fun
I tried to hurt no one
My mind got stuck
It split and it sunk
So I gave it up
I gave it up
Saving all you can
I tried to love your hand
I tried to play my hand
To the finish
But there's a limit
And I cannot win
I cannot win
You were my best friend
So when I took your hand
I tried to understand
What it meant
How time begins
And it let us in
It let us in again
Somewhere in between
The {?)
The dark I cannot leave
I'm ancient
When time ends
It's gonna start again
Start again
I'm ancient
When time ends
It's gonna start again
Start again
I let my mind run wild
I thought that time expired
And now, what then?
So I let you in
I let you in again
When I was growing up
I tried to have my fun
I tried to hurt no one
My mind got stuck
It split and it sunk
So I gave it up
I gave it up
Saving all you can
I tried to love your hand
I tried to play my hand
To the finish
But there's a limit
And I cannot win
I cannot win
You were my best friend
So when I took your hand
I tried to understand
What it meant
How time begins
And it let us in
It let us in again
Somewhere in between
The {?)
The dark I cannot leave
I'm ancient
When time ends
It's gonna start again
Start again
I'm ancient
When time ends
It's gonna start again
Start again
