作词 : Gould, King, Lindup
I keep to myself
I What might share with others

But they dont seem to understand

I open my mouth
To rediscover

That I dont have the words at my command

Holding out

For a world so much better

But Im a stranger in a strangers land

All my friends have sold out

Couldnt handle the pressure

Counting their blessings trying to salvage what they can

Children say - children say

We open our minds as one

But one more day - slips away

Why dont the dreams of the young never come to be

When I overhear

My parents conversations

Well Im 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 cant lock it
cause something of their childhood remains

And theyve 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 youve known

But one fine day - （not） far away

Will we remember the love we used to own

Children say - children say

We open our minds as one

As one more day slips away

dont the Why dreams of the young never come to be

Well you knew I what was saying

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 waking dream

All that time we must have spent
Well I guess it must have been
Somehow that feeling came and went

Children say - come what may

Be strong for the friends youve known

But one fine day - （not） far away

Will 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 dreams dont of the the young never come beto

Children say - children say

Children say - children say

Children say - children say
