Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. Tell me when did we grow up And give all our dreams away Wide eyes and wonder All lost in yesterday When miracles came true And heaven was closer Can we turn back the pages Back to when we were
Like a child like a child with perfect faith Like it was we were young and wide awake We believed we believed We could do anything Like a child like a child so full of love You remember remember how it was We believed we believed We could do anything
Now that we’re older It’s easier to forget But our hearts are much bigger So open up open up and let Him in
Like a child like a child with perfect faith Like it was we were young and wide awake We believed we believed We could do anything Like a child like a child so full of love You remember remember how it was We believed we believed We could do anything Ooh Ooh
Like a child like a child with perfect faith Like it was we were young and wide awake We believed we believed We could do anything Like a child like a child so full of love You remember remember how it was We believed we believed We could do anything Ooh Ooh Mmm
