Fish - Misplaced Childhood

Childhoods End? Lyrics

by Fish
Album: Misplaced Childhood (1984)



And it was morning.
And I found myself mourning
For a childhood that I thought had disappeared
I looked out the window,
And I saw a magpie in the rainbow, the rain had gone
Im not alone, I turned to the mirror,
I saw you, the child, that once loved
The child before they broke his heart,
Our heart, the heart that I believed was lost.

Hey you, surprised? more than surprised,
To find the answers to the questions,
Were always in your own eyes
Do you realize that you couldve gone back to her?
But that would only be retraced in all the problems that you ever knew,
So untrue.
For shes got to carry on with her life,
And youve got to carry on with yours

So I see its me, I can do anything
And Im still the child,
cause the only thing misplaced was direction
And I found direction
There is no childhoods end
There is no childhoods end
cause you are my childhood friend
cause you are my childhood friend
Oh lead me on.

Hey you, youve survived
Now youve arrived,
To be reborn in the shadow of the magpie
Now you realize, that youve got to get out of here
Youve found the leading light of destiny,
Burning in the ashes of your memory
You want to change the world
Youd resigned yourself to die a broken rebel,
But that was looking backward
Now youve found the light.

You, the child that once loved,
The child before they broke his heart
Our heart, the heart that I believed was lost
So its me I see, I can do anything
Im still the child
cause the only thing misplaced was direction, and I found direction
There is no childhoods end
There is no childhoods end
There is no childhoods end
I am your childhood friend
Oh.. lead me on.
