As A Child

How lovely it was
How strange
How strange it will be
But I suppose in time
These little deaths will be
Merely shadows that swim
In the dark end of my memory

And I'll forget you
As I forget the names
Of those who caused me pain
As a child
Yes I'll forget you
As I forget the names
Of those who caused me pain

And the Moon will still shine
And be as it wants to be
While we tiny shadows move in circles
And try to keep
Our hands warm, our hands warm

And I'll forget you
As I forget the names
Of those who caused me pain
As a child
Yes I'll forget you
As I forget the names
Of those who caused me pain

I'll forget you
As I forget the names
Of those who caused me pain
As a child
Yes I'll forget you
As I forget the names
Of those who caused me pain
