I once knew a child I once knew a man
We shared one mind but without a plan
I once knew a song I once knew a dream
I climb in I drift down the freezing stream
And I dreamt of you and as you started to slip away
I'm just one of a few who held you on that day
So let's stop this now all the hurting that you pay
Let's set each other free now tell me what you'd say
How you looked at me as i held you in my hands
No matter how hard I try I could never understand
It's just the world and you now distant skies and foreign lands
But how do you learn to stand on liquefacting sands
