lyrics

(Written by J. Shields, D. Shields)

When I was a young boy, I wanted to be on T.V.
I’d dance with the stars and the judges would all vote for me
N’ Mama would tell me that God has a plan for us all
But gravity reminds us, what goes up is surely to fall

I met a man who was dying for reasons to live
‘Cause his children won’t call him, and he thinks he’s got nothing to give
So he puts on a circus with a cigarette and a brown paper bag
N’ he dances for no one and pretends he doesn’t feel sad

When you were a child imagination was king
The world was your castle, you thought you could do anything

Now that you’re older your dreams are whispers in wind
They float to the heavens never to be heard from again
You make excuses trying to squeeze blood from a stone
When a small shift in focus is all you need to get home

When you were a child imagination was king
The world was your castle, you knew you could do anything
