Child

Never as a child Would you give this time of day You would take it from the shadows And you give it another name But now it's all that's left And though it awful gentle takes you And it awful slowly leaves It's a weight I wouldn't wish upon And I wish I wouldn't have to wait Now it's all that's left Never as a child Now it's so vivid Given to the wild While the ways of a child Are whiled away, whiled away
