Level 42 - Children Say Lyrics

Send "Children Say" ringtone to your cell

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

Holdin' 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

Countin' their blessings tryin' 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

'cause somethin' 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 far away

Can 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?

Everybody hear them say

Well you knew what i was sayin'

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 wakin' dream?

All that time we must have spent

Well i guess it must have been

Somehow that feelin' came and went

Children say "come what may

Be strong for the friends you've known"

But one fine day far away

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?

And all children say

Children say children say

And all children say

Children say children say

Hear just them say

Children say children say

All children say

Children say children say
