Proclaimers - Your Childhood Lyrics
From birth to five, you're learningFrom five to ten, you're playingBy the time you're fifteenYou're never wrongBut then you turn aroundAnd it's all gone, your childhoodNow daddy knows what he's sayingYou're in my arms and i'm prayingThat i'll be given the strength and timeTo make yours just as happy as mineYour childhoodEvery morningYour crying ends my sleepI kid on i'm angryBut it's not a feeling i can keepThere's no light outsideI don't care 'cos i know it's trueThat in our houseThe sun shines out of youYou've got your mother's looksYour're a beautiful little girlYou'll break boys heartsAll over this worldThen one day you'll walk out the doorAnd i know you'll break mineYou'll break mineFrom birth to five, you're learningFrom five to ten, you're playingBy the time you're fifteen you're never wrongBut then you turn around and it's all goneYour childhoodSo you're trying to talkAny day now you'll walkYou'll be running aroundMake me act like a clown'cos i live and i breatheFor my little girlOur little girlThe most important thing is this whole wide worldNow daddy know what he's sayingYour in my arms and i'm prayingThat i'll be given the strength an timeTo make yours just as happy as mineYour childhood
