Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hands on the window pane
Watching some children laugh and play
They're running in circles
With candy canes and french braids
Inspired to question
What makes us grown ups anyway?
Let's search for the moment
When youth betrayed itself to age
[Verse 2]
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
Will never die
[Verse 3]
In searching for substance
We're clouded by struggle's haze
Remember the meaning
Of playing out in the rain
We swim in the fountain
Of youth's timeless maze
If you drink the water
Your youth will never fade
[Verse 4]
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
Never die
Never die
Never die
[Verse 5]
I won't let go of that youthful soul
Despite body and mind my youth will never die
I won't let go of that youthful soul
Despite body and mind my youth will never die
[Verse 6]
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
So let the children play
Inside your heart always
And death you will defy
'Cause your youth will never die
Never die
