Childhood's End lyrics

All the universe full of wonder

Full of fantasy and illusions

But one day, a day like others

Death came, unmistakable

A soul dear, most beloved

A universe came crashing down

Fantasies dissolved and faded

And life itself became the illusion

That day a reality awakened

And found a childhood's end

Fairytales, ogres and monsters

All became the cold truth bared

Roses and a fine casket show

Destiny of all men, once young

A dreamless childhood's end

The brilliant flowers of the field

Bees buzzing between them all

And those known or still to meet

Will discover that gated path

That leads to childhood's end
