Lyrics

THERE'S A BOY
AND HE'S LOOKING OUT HIS WINDOW
HE SEES THE DAWN
EVER CHANGING IN THE MORNING LIGHT
LIKE HIS YOUTH
IT MELTS AWAY JUST LIKE THE MORNING DEW
HE LEARNS THE TRUTH
THAT NOTHING IN THIS WORLD REMAINS THE SAME

WHERE ARE THEY GONE, THOSE MAGIC DAYS
WHEN THE SNOW FELL DOWN LIKE FEATHERS
AT CHRISTMAS TIME
SO FAR AWAY THOSE SUMMER DAYS
WHEN DAISY CHAINS AND BUTTERFLIES
CAST A SPELL ON HIM
WHERE ARE THEY GONE
THOSE MAGIC DAYS

HE'S ALMOST THERE
HE'S GOT THE BIG BAD WORLD RIGHT IN HIS SIGHTS
HE MUST DO OR DARE
KNOW WHEN TO RUN AND WHEN TO FIGHT
BUT HE'LL SOMETIMES WISH
HE COULD BE FAR AWAY FROM THIS VALE OF TEARS
BACK TO THOSE DAYS
BACK TO THE INNOCENCE OF HIS CHILDHOOD YEARS

WHERE ARE THEY GONE THOSE MAGIC DAYS
WHEN THE SNOW FELL DOWN LIKE FEATHERS
AT CHRISTMAS TIME
SO FAR AWAY THOSE SUMMER DAYS
WHEN DAISY CHAINS AND BUTTERFLIES
CAST A SPELL ON HIM
WHERE ARE THEY GONE
WHERE ARE THEY GONE
WHERE ARE THEY GONE
THOSE MAGIC DAYS
SO FAR AWAY
THOSE MAGIC DAYS
