[Verse]
When I was a child
The days whispered by
In a half-seen memory of an angel's flight
People used to say
"You'll be old before your age"
My bitter laughter would ring out at them
[Chorus 1]
Once I was a child on the outside
Now I am a child on the inside
Sometimes I cry
I used to be a child
[Bridge 1]
Sitting by a stream
The night breeze shone on me
I swore to never leave
Once there was a boy
A breeze flew past
Through our laughter
[Instrumental]
[Bridge 2]
Now therе's no time
For sitting by a stream
I've got othеr things on my mind
Now there is no boy
I've left him in the past
Along with my love
When I was a child
The days whispered by
In a half-seen memory of an angel's flight
People used to say
"You'll be old before your age"
My bitter laughter would ring out at them
[Chorus 1]
Once I was a child on the outside
Now I am a child on the inside
Sometimes I cry
I used to be a child
[Bridge 1]
Sitting by a stream
The night breeze shone on me
I swore to never leave
Once there was a boy
A breeze flew past
Through our laughter
[Instrumental]
[Bridge 2]
Now therе's no time
For sitting by a stream
I've got othеr things on my mind
Now there is no boy
I've left him in the past
Along with my love
