I took a walk by the sea
Nothing else, just for me
Yesterday was a long, long time agoThere'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 lifeAs 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 childrenTook a walk by the sea
I'd forgotten what it meant to me
Some things we should carry from the pastThere's a boy and he's singin'
And in the wind his words are ringin'
His innocence it is buried in us allAs I look and see
That boy inside of me
May have seen a storm or two
But the dream's aliveAnd I, I, I look to the children
I look to the childrenAs I look around
So many, so far down
Just search inside yourself
'Cause the dream's aliveI, I look to the children
I look to the children
