Young child with dreams
dream every dream
on your own
When children play
seems like you
end up alone
Papa says he'd love
to be with you
if he had the time
So you turn to the only
friend you can find
there in your mind
Shilo when I was young
I used to call your name
when no-one else would
come Shilo you always
came and we'd play
Young girl with fire
something said
she understood
I wanted to fly
she made me feel
like I could
Held my hand out
I let her take me
'cause I was a child
All I saw was the way
that she made me smile
she made me smile
Shilo when I was young
I used to call your name
when no-one else would
come Shilo you always
came and you'd stay
Had a dream and it
filled me with hunger
she had other plans
Got to go said she
knows that I understand
I understand
Shilo when I was
young I used to call
your name when
no-one else would come
