In the storms of childhood We ran down roads It rained of frogs It rained of toads We held aloft Our rods of steel The lightning bolt We hoped to feel We run through nights Deep beyond measure And steel the Queen Of England's treasure Above the roof tops Above the trees Escape the law With careless ease Only children have days like these We take the jet's tail out of the sky And tie a box Of tiger's eye Come back Aladdin, come back please Forgive, forgive the 40 thieves We run through nights Deep beyond measure And steel the queen Of England's treasure We climb and hide as we please Escape the law with careless ease Only children have days like these Let's illuminate all our years It gives us strength Against our fears Come back Aladdin, come back please Forgive, forgive the 40 thieves Only children have friends like these Have friends like these.
