Every minute we're making it More difficult to pass Wondrous ways are far behind In a childhood that should last I want to see your face I want to see your face I want to see your face When its time Wondrous ways are far behind With innocence left only to the young To stop our minds and just believe Would bring us all our every need I know While images flash right before our eyes It lies I sympathize But you and I can think about it You and I can't live without it You and I can swallow You and I can swallow our pride Wondrous ways are far behind With innocence left only to the weak Fumbling towards our greatest hour Too bad so long ago we peaked While images flash right before our eyes It lies I sympathize But you and I can think about it You and I can live We always mean to borrow Time left to tomorrow What if tomorrow never came So the blemish would remain You and I can swallow You and I can swallow our pride
