All my hopes and dreams Scattered like ashes Up in flames A quiet disaster
One day something went wrong Everything changed Now we're patching these holes In our souls where a ball and chain
We were better off when we were little children When our faith came as easy as breathing When we dreamed we could fly Hope was shining in our eyes We were better off when we were little children
We used to fill our days Running just to pass time Now life's a race We're running just to survive
Now our bones are tired And I have grown weary There were dreams in my mind Dreams I could see so clearly
We were better off when we were little children When our faith came as easy as breathing When we dreamed we could fly Hope was shining in our eyes We were better off when we were little children
Where did you go Simple little heart of mine Feels like every year You're a little more hard to find
We were better off when we were little children When our faith came as easy as breathing When we dreamed we could fly Hope was shining in our eyes We were better off when we were little children
