Lyrics and Music by Sean Kelly

The man out on the street today made a stand
He says his life was filled with love and hope
Then pointed at the trees he used to swing on
And asked where the child within has gone
So you say your soldiers are strong enough
I say they're feathers in the wind
No wars to win no seeds to sow
No swings to twist and turn

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Is that the truth at all?
Ever after will never be the same
But I'll keep searching anyway

When I look at you upside down
From a place I've never been
I dream of the waves and hold you in
Look at the way the clouds
Are sifting through a clear blue sky
Remember now you're free
But you were too young to die

One more time just to be held
Any stranger's arms will do
Ever after will never be the same
But I'll keep searching anyway

When did the winter freeze?
Who knows the time of year?
I dream of the waves and hold you in
Look at the way the clouds
Are sifting through a clear blue sky
Remember now you're free
But you were too young to die

The man out on the street today made a stand
He says his life was filled with love and hope
Then pointed at the trees he used to swing on
And asked where the child within has gone

I heard the funeral march
Watching from far above
I dream of the waves and hold you in
Look at the way the clouds
Are sifting through a clear blue sky
Remember now you're free
But you were too young to die
Maybe now you're free
but you were too young to die
Maybe now you're free
but you were too young to die
