Childhood Days

It was my childhood days
I was blind, I was little, I was a child
I had it all my way
With my dreams, with my friends, a clear blue sky
I used to fly away
Sometimes alone, sometimes with mates, I soared
It was those carefree days
All together, birds of a feather, in sunny May

Then all of a sudden
Beasts of burden
I grew up, I grew big, I grew old
All those endless games now friendless
A memory tight to hold.

It was those funny days
Playing pranks, playing jokes into the night
I still had my way
Dominating, empowering, leader in sight
They always did as I said
While in playing, conversing, manipulating
I never felt guilty anyway
They were happy in following

Then all of a sudden
Beasts of burden
I grew up, I grew big, I grew old
All those endless games now friendless
A memory tight to hold.

We might never meet again
But we have it, in our heartbeat, deep inside
Eons have passed away
Now we smile when we think of those fights

We'll always remember
The same long feather
Of childhood that we shared
A long bed time story
Sweet distant memory
Something forever that will last.
