Then Came the Children
Come gather all around me friends I'll tell to you about the minstrel band Of children in their witches hats And painting pictures with the pipes of pan
The young boy and his sister played Some tunes upon a whistle made of tin And led me through the flower gardens Laughing at the postman's stubby chin
In my dizzy stupor I was trying Hard to forfeit all I'd known And listen to this music that could Swirl me in a magic all their own
Somewhere in the distance you and I Had fought the monster to a draw In those days of books and wine With Ferlinghetti grasping for a straw
Out along the highways we had Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Journeyed far to find the mystic smile With chasing down identities, my God We must have run a million miles
Oh sing for us you children, tinkle bells And rhyme the purple green and blue And think of us as fighting fools Who wintered through the seasons loving you
Oh we can teach them nothing But survival in a desert bare But they can teach us how to love And live and tie bright ribbons in our hair
Oh sing for us you children, tinkle bells And rhyme the purple green and blue And think of us as fighting fools Who wintered through the seasons loving you
