Gone gone childhood days Gone in so many ways All that I have said and done The castles we have overcome At last you have found a friend The sweetest voice will never end And it echoes down the mountainside People live and people die Friendly face will always be Wrapped up in my childhood days Old dogs and worn out shoes Even children sing the blues How we must endure it all To save God's creatures great and small All my world is there and then The voices come to me again And they echo down the mountainside People live and people die I still can see my Daddy's face, Oh Lord This is a lonely place Fast train , train too slow Maybe you got no place to go Let me set your spirit free It's crazy but you comfort me We share together what we found The force of love is all around And it echoes down the mountainside Little bit of soul we hide Find us lost without a trace Oh Lord This is a lonely place Gone gone childhood days Gone in so many ways In all my children you can see What old aquaintance means to me Drean is mine and here it stays All wrapped up in my childhood days And it echoes down the mountainside People live and people die Tho I love you for always I lost you in my childhood days
