All the Little Children

Walking down the same worn paths again

Do you fly?

Do you?

I'd correct my own way

If I could

If I should

Should do

I will play the same old notes again

Do you write?

Do you?

I'd compose a new chord

If I could

If I should

I should do

All the other children

Love to sing along

But it's my song

I'm supposed to go back

To the first key

But I won't

I'll change it

Do I have to play by all the rules?

Well I won't

I'm changing

Guess I'll have to stick out

From the rest

"He's not right, break him"

Guess I'll have to try to be the best

"That sounds good, we'll take him"

All the other children

Want to sing along

But it's my song

I'll compose a new song

From my heart

Do you like?

Do you?

I'll compose a new song

For the world

Will you sing?

Will you?

I'll breathe my soul

Into the sun

He's the light, burning

And I'll shine down on everyone

Set your hearts a-turning

All your little children

They will sing along

To my song
