<br>I keep to myself<br><br>What I might share with others<br><br>But they dont seem to understand<br><br>I open my mouth<br><br>To rediscover<br><br>That I dont have the words at my command<br><br>Holding out<br><br>For a world so much better<br><br>But Im a stranger in a strangers land<br><br>All my friends have sold out<br><br>Couldnt handle the pressure<br><br>Counting their blessings trying to salvage what they can<br><br><br><br>Children say - children say<br><br>We open our minds as one<br><br>But one more day - slips away<br><br>Why dont the dreams of the young never come to be<br><br><br><br>When I overhear<br><br>My parents conversations<br><br>Well Im struck by the things they say<br><br>It seems they traded the years<br><br>For mere complications<br><br>Who ever thought it could end this way<br><br>They close the door<br><br>But they cant lock it<br><br>cause something of their childhood remains<br><br>And theyve felt it before<br><br>When the man in their pocket<br><br>Counted the cost of their material gains<br><br><br><br>Children say - come what may<br><br>Be strong for the friends youve known<br><br>But one fine day - (not) far away<br><br>Will we remember the love we used to own<br><br>Children say - children say<br><br>We open our minds as one<br><br>As one more day slips away<br><br>Why dont the dreams of the young never come to be<br><br><br><br>Well you knew what I was saying<br><br>But did you know what it meant<br><br>When you saw that look in my eye<br><br>Did you know it was heaven sent<br><br>Was it all a waking dream<br><br>All that time we must have spent<br><br>Well I guess it must have been<br><br>Somehow that feeling came and went<br><br><br><br>Children say - come what may<br><br>Be strong for the friends youve known<br><br>But one fine day - (not) far away<br><br>Will we remember the love we used to own<br><br>Children say - children say<br><br>We open our minds as one<br><br>As one more day - slips away<br><br>Why dont the dreams of the young never come to be<br><br>Children say - children say<br><br>We thought it would never go<br><br>As one more day - slips away<br><br>Who ever thought we could be so lonely
