And it was morning.
And I found myself mourning
For a childhood that I thought had disappeared
I looked out the window,
And I saw a magpie in the rainbow, the rain had gone
I`m not alone, I turned to the mirror,
I saw you, the child, that once loved
The child before they broke his heart,
Our heart, the heart that I believed was lost.
Hey you, surprised? More than surprised,
To find the answers to the questions,
Were always in your own eyes
Do you realize that you could`ve gone back to her?
But that would only be retraced in all the problems that you ever knew,
So untrue.
For she`s got to carry on with her life,
And you`ve got to carry on with yours
So I see it`s me, I can do anything
And I`m still the child,
`Cause the only thing misplaced was direction
And I found direction
There is no Childhood`s End
There is no Childhood`s End
`Cause you are my childhood friend
`Cause you are my childhood friend
Oh lead me on.
Hey you, you`ve survived
Now you`ve arrived,
To be reborn in the shadow of the magpie
Now you realize, that you`ve got to get out of here
You`ve found the leading light of destiny,
Burning in the ashes of your memory
You want to change the world
You`d resigned yourself to die a broken rebel,
But that was looking backward
Now you`ve found the light.
You, the child that once loved,
The child before they broke his heart
Our heart, the heart that I believed was lost
So it`s me I see, I can do anything
I`m still the child
`Cause the only thing misplaced was direction, and I found direction
There is no childhood`s end
There is no childhood`s end
There is no childhood`s end
I am your childhood friend
Oh.. lead me on.
