Jack Bruce: "Childsong" Lyrics

She shakes her head and says

That her last word is spoken

Tumbling down

Something she found

Where happiness lay

Not far away

Hear it now

You got so many ways

When the last chains are broken

Tumbling down

You hear a new sound

It's dark into day

Not far away

Hear it now

When summer leaves

The tangles that it weaves

are floating in the wind

Hard to begin

To get back in

You stay but it's never in only one piece

You got to find release

He runs away and plays

his laughter is just awoken

Tumbling down

The eyes of a clown

And truth sings today

Not far away

Hear it now
