Let us be Children once more

[Verse 1]
I stand and watch like a secret spy,
my son’s outside, he laughs and flies.
His eyes are bright, the world’s a game –
and I wonder: When did I lose the flame?

I carry weight, I’m a grown-up man,
but deep inside the awe began.
It’s still alive, the child in me,
it hides in noise – but it longs to be free.

[Pre-Chorus]
What became of the dreams we had?
Why can’t we feel that fire we knew?
Too many worries make us sad –
and turn our lives to something due.

[Chorus]
Let us be children once more,
(thoughts unchained)
with open hearts like times before.
(endlessly)
To love with no mapped-out plan,
wild and free, until we can (we can)
change the world – one stone at a time (a time).
Let us be children once more!
(Let us be children once more!)

[Verse 2]
I see my girl – and I feel pride.
She speaks her truth – no need to hide.
No false intent, no empty tone,
just heart and gut – she stands alone.

We teach her what seems good and wise –
but miss the truth behind the lies.
If you don’t play, you’ll never grow,
and dreams are life’s essential glow.

[Pre-Chorus]
See how they fly – unchained, unbound,
with minds in hearts and their souls on display.
When did our childhood lose its sound?
Since when did others lead the way?

[Guitar Solo]

[Spoken – with Piano]
To be grown means: learning to let go.
But what if we held on to a few things?
The courage to dream... (to dream, to dream)
the strength to fall – and rise again (again, again)
not because we must.
But because we still can!!

[Final Chorus]
Let us be children once more,
embrace the world – not just the form. (not just the form)
With hands wide open, like a book,
with longing deeper than it looks –
beyond what duty has become.
Let us be children once more!
(Let us be children once more!)

[Outro]
Let us –
be children once more...
(Let us be children once more!)
