Childhood

Remember where the old lantern bends

And always laughing my little friends

My house near the school and my park

And running to the yard, playing games

My momma said again and again

Just please return home before dark

Tell me where can we meet better

When roads no longer lead

 to my childhood?

Could you bring my missing letter

To the ruined little street

of my childhood?

I know that I won't meet everyone

After the rain of those fucking bombs

Don't worry, baby, it's just a storm

I'm really scared and I don't pretend

We are the children of the same land

I'm begging of protecting my home

Tell me where can we meet better

When roads no longer lead

 to my childhood?

Could you bring my missing letter

To the ruined little street

of my childhood?

------------

Wherever life has scattered us

New houses or shelter or bus

We dream about home at night

Remember me forever like that

And through the distance hold my hand

Just stay alive, don't say goodbye

Tell me where can we meet better

When roads no longer lead

 to my childhood?

Could you bring my missing letter

To the ruined little street

of my childhood?
