Little Child

Lighthouse and Train:
Cables and wires and rope
How can that widen your scope?
The lighthouse is pushing out waves
The lighthouse shimmers and saves
The lighthouse is pushing out waves

Clocks and stations and lines
How come that sticks to our minds?
The night train is pushing out miles
The night train whispers good bye
The night train is pushing out miles

Time is a runaway point
How come it's never been caught?
The lookout was turning his back
The lookout was losing the track
The lookout never came back

Spinning Around the Sun:
Friends and foes, on it goes, on and on
Im still young, I still long, for the one
There's no void, like the void, filled with nothing
Nothing at all
No green light, no red light, darkness calls
There's no door, there's no wall, then you fall

And his stone keeps turning, spinning 'round the sun
While the clock is working, working overtime
Sense the hours die, time is on the run
Hear the mighty voice, mighty noise, it's a holy sign

Friends and foes, on it goes, on and on
Bodies fade, blond hair greys, going home
Catch the day, learn and play, little keeper
Of pink dreams
All the same, play the game, lions roar
Claim your rights in the stone of forevermore

And this stone keeps turning, spinning 'round the sun
Pay the fare and hold ticket in your hand
You can show your cards life has just begun
Let me see your face I can understand
Better leave it be.......

And our faces change into metal masks
No solution's offered if no question's asked
Let me see your face in the morning
Little child, little child, older now
