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 bolted up every door,
Lived in a bubble days were never ending
Was not concerned about what life was sending
fantasy was real
But now I know much about the way I feel

I’m gonna paint you a picture
‘Cos I don’t think you live round here no more
Never even seen the key to the door
We’re only got what we will settle for

While we’re living, the dreams we have as children fade away
While we’re living, the dreams we have as children fade away
While we’re living, the dreams we have as children fade away
While we’re living, the dreams we have as children fade away
Fade away...

Now my life has turned another corner
I think it’s only fair that I should warn you
dream it while you can
maybe someday, I’ll made you understand
I’m gonna paint you a picture
‘Cos I don’t think you live round here no more
Never even seen the key to the door
We’re only got what we will settle for

While we’re living the dreams we have as children fade away
While we’re living the dreams we have as children fade away
While we’re living the dreams we have as children fade away
While we’re living the dreams we have as children fade away
Fade away, Fade away, Fade away...
