Lyric Childhood s End
I lived a life of illusion and you had your kicks
So what, there s nothing left to do
And you and your obsessions and your crucifix
As if what I thought mattered much to you
And you were always my friend
from Childhood s End
It was forever and ever
Did you understand
It s Childhood s End
But never, the dream is over
Sunday morning in the New York Times
I read you died last night
It said you were smilin when you blew your mind
And the note you left behind said
You were always my friend
from Childhood s End
Seems like forever and ever
Yeah, you won t have to have to pretend
It s near the end
You won t ever be a rock and roller
Yeah, you were always my friend
from Childhood s End
But never, the dream is over
You were just like me
I was just like you
For eternity I ll think of you
(Repeat chorus, fade out)
You ve got something about you,
You ve got something I need
So what, there s nothing left to do
And you and your obsessions and your crucifix
As if what I thought mattered much to you
And you were always my friend
from Childhood s End
It was forever and ever
Did you understand
It s Childhood s End
But never, the dream is over
Sunday morning in the New York Times
I read you died last night
It said you were smilin when you blew your mind
And the note you left behind said
You were always my friend
from Childhood s End
Seems like forever and ever
Yeah, you won t have to have to pretend
It s near the end
You won t ever be a rock and roller
Yeah, you were always my friend
from Childhood s End
But never, the dream is over
You were just like me
I was just like you
For eternity I ll think of you
(Repeat chorus, fade out)
You ve got something about you,
You ve got something I need
