Shadow Children
Lost Shadows: Childhood's Echoes in Melancholic Tunes
Lyrics
Far away in the light of day
Reflecting on a distant time during daylight.
when we as children played.
Recalling childhood moments of play.
Prone to run in the setting sun
Describing the inclination to run as the sun sets.
and slowly fade away
Suggesting a gradual disappearance or loss.
Where, where did we go, oh
Pondering the whereabouts during the loss of innocence.
when we lost our shadows?
Questioning the moment of losing one's shadows.
I'll fly through your window
Expressing a willingness to engage or connect.
if you tell me a story
Seeking engagement through storytelling.
of long lost boys and their wooden toys
Narrating tales of lost boys and their imaginative toys.
and mermaids by the sea,
Introducing mythical elements like mermaids by the sea.
Pixie dust and a gust of wind
Evoking magical elements like pixie dust and wind.
to sail us through our dreams
Using fantasy to navigate through dreams.
Where, where did we go, oh
Repeating the query about the loss of shadows.
when we lost our shadows?
Reiterating a willingness to connect through storytelling.
I'll fly through your window
Expressing a readiness to enter someone's world.
if you tell me a story
Repeating the desire for a narrative.
of when we must all grow up
Reflecting on the inevitability of growing up.
to the applause of society's masquerade
Noting the societal pressure and its performance.
I find it odd
Expressing a sense of peculiarity or contradiction.
Where, where did we go, oh
Repeating the inquiry about the lost shadows.
when we lost our shadows?
Reiterating the openness to storytelling.
I'll fly through your window
Renewing the offer to enter the world through a story.
if you tell me a story now
Closing the lyrical exploration with the present request.
