There's a riddle in my head
Every night I go to bed
And I think about it all
Everything that's up ahead
I never thought about back when I drew
Pictures on the wall
We were running wild, so fearless
Where did we go?
Where did we go?
When you're tired of waiting on the better days to come
And coming undone
When you're tired of thinking
"Oh how bitter I've become"
Look at the sky
See the colour bursting into life
Burning brighter than it did when were younger
When we were (we were!)
We were, we were
Children of the sun
So don't you lay there and pretend
That your broken heart won't mend
We could be running towards the dawn
If it's a mystery till we're dead
I won't be fearful when it ends
Cause I found heaven in your arms
We were running wild, so fearless
Where did we go?
Where did we go?
When you're tired of waiting on the better days to come
And coming undone
When you're tired of thinking
"Oh how bitter I've become"
Look at the sky
See the colour bursting into life
Burning brighter than it did when were younger
When we were (we were!)
We were, we were
Children of the sun
Come chase it, with me by your side
It's not a feeling we can ignore
And if we let it get inside, oh
We could find all the things that we've been waiting for
When you're tired of waiting on the better days to come
And coming undone
When you're tired of thinking
"Oh how bitter I've become"
Look at the sky
See the colour bursting into life
Burning brighter than it did when were younger
When we were (we were!)
We were, we were
Children of the sun
(Oohoo, yeah yeah)
