Verse 1
When I was young I thought I had my own key
I knew exactly what I wanted to be
Now I'm sure
You've boarded up every door
Verse 2
Lived in a bubble days were never ending
Was not concerned about what life was sending
Fantasy was real
Now I know much about the way I feel
Pre-chorus
I'll paint you the picture
'Cos I don't think you live round here no more
I've never even seen the key to the door
We only get what we will settle for
Chorus
While we're living
The dreams we had as children
Fade away
While we're living
the dreams we had as children
fade away
While we're living
the dreams we had as children
fade away
While we're living
the dreams we had as children
fade away, away, away
they fade away, away, away
Verse 3
Now my life has turned another corner
I think it's only fair that I should warn yer
Dream it while you can
Maybe someday I'll make you understand
