I took a walk by the sea

Nothing else--just for me

Yesterday was a long, long time ago

There's a man and he's sighing

It's all he's got to keep from crying

His shattered dreams.

Have been worn down by life



And I wonder now

How a man gets so far down

Where's the pride and the glory

Where's the pot of gold



and I....I

I look to the children



I took a walk by the sea

I'd forgotten what it meant to me

Some things we should carry from the past

There's a boy and he's singin'

And in the wind his words are ringin'

His innocence it is buried in us all



Now I look and see

That boy inside of me

May have seen a storm or two

But the dream is alive



and I....I

I look to the children

I look to the children



And I look around

So many so far down

Just search inside yourself

But the dreams alive



and I....I

I look to the children

I look to the children
