Lyrics (unofficial)

There was music playing in our heads
All the children waiting to be fed
We were walking through the fields
The sun shone like a golden shield

But time just tick tick tick tick tick but never tock
Oh baby, who can turn back the clock
A voice was singing in the pines
I remember auld lang syne
Then we just turn and walk away
Can't remember where I am today

Shouldn't go very far
Shouldn't go very far away
??? [2:15] in the place I came to pray

And I wonder when we touch
If I want this so very much
And I'm dreaming of the day
For all we lack carried on our backs
