Child Lyrics
by The Maccabees
Never as a child
Would you give this time of day
You would take it from the shadows
And you give it another name
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e67580-the_maccabees~child_lyrics.html ]
But now it's all that's left
Now it's all that's left
And though it awful gentle takes you
And it awful slowly leaves
It's a weight I wouldn't wish upon
And I wish I wouldn't have to wait
But now it's all that's left
Now it's all that's left
Now it's all that's left
Now it's all that's left
Never as a child
Never as a child
Now it's so vivid
Now it's so vivid
Now it's so vivid
Now it's so vivid
Given to the wild
Given to the wilder ways
While the ways of a child
Are whiled away, whiled away
Now it's all that's left
Now it's all that's left
