FOREVER YESTERDAY (FOR THE CHILDREN)
Music and lyrics by Glenn Smith
I see the children, I hear them laughing
And I remember not long ago
Play life pretending we were unending.
We had forever yesterday.
We were the children laughing and playing.
We were the morning, shiny and new.
We were forever. When did it happen ?
I don't remember coming through.
I don't remember. When did the music change ?
When did the tears start falling for real ?
Give them forever. Let them be children.
They have the wings and they can fly.
They have the magic. Give them their freedom.
There will be time for them to cry.
When they bid yesterday goodbye
Cherish the children. Give them their right to be.
No man determines the time of a child.
Give them forever. Let them be children.
There will be time for them to die.
When they bid yesterday goodbye.
