Everyday's a childhood Everyday's a wild wood Always learning, always yearning Everyday's a childhood Sun in my eyes, spring in my nose You asked what I remember most Songs she sung by my cradle side Father taught me to be kind Before I learned the world was hard Beneath the plum tree in the yard Thinking, first life blossoms and then it fruits Thought, "Even earth tastes pretty good" Whoever makes the summer bloom When I grow up, I wanna be like you I thought, "I love all the things you do "So when I grow up, I wanna be like you" But you told me of the cuckoo bird Who takes the song birds from their nests And steals their tune before it's heard Now I know that sums up life the best 'Cause everyday's a childhood Oh, everyday's a wild wood Always learning, always yearning Everyday's a childhood Trouble turns up at your door Posts you heartbreak letters The next thing you know, you've realised You've never been much better But I remember what I loved I remember where I'm from And I'll keep singing beauty's song That is where my heart belongs 'Cause everyday's a childhood Everyday's a wild wood Always learning, always yearning Everyday's a childhood When everything was all brand new That innocence of childhood Oh, the gentle spell that loved me well Before the cuckoo rang the bell Well, if love's the sun and truth's the rain Then mercy seasons growing pains Well, things can leave an ugly stain But every day, I'm young again 'Cause everyday's a childhood Oh, everyday's a wild wood Always learning, always yearning Oh, everyday's a childhood Yeah, everyday's a childhood Oh, everyday's a wild wood Always learning, always yearning Oh, everyday's a childhood

Adventures in her dressing gown, smoke rings in the car Once upon a time she had a dream called Arcadia Well, today's the same old story Someone's trying to win the world Really not that different from a kid Trying to get the girl There's a postcard on the mantelpiece, it takes a noble bow With a letter on the back doesn't really matter now She comes in from a late shift, and tumbles into bed And just rifles through her phone for the things he never said Will somebody take her where the roses bloom? She's only ever heard of hearing "I love you" Whatever happened to Arcadia (What happened to Arcadia?) (What happened to Arcadia?) Whatever happened to Arcadia

Don't let them paint you gray They're gonna see you're somebody, somewhere, someday Don't ever let them take your playful heart away Oh you're somebody nobody could replicate Yeah I already know there's only one of you That the world is gonna see, another side of you Though the tide's been rising, since I'm proud of you Oh I know that we're gonna see laughing like you used to do Yeah from now, now, now From now, I'm gonna find a new song It goes "I knew you as a cub and now you've grown into a lion" When I go back to the start You're lost in better rhythm, in the beat of your heart You were like a queen of diamonds and your tower of cards So easily blown over when the going got hard But the best thing about this love You don't old smoke beyond this even newer fire We sang "I knew you as a cub and now you've grown into a lion" Oh from now, now, now From now, I'm gonna find a new song It goes "I knew you as a cub and now you've grown into a lion" Oh they can laugh if they like Because this time you know you're right You can feel the wisdom growing inside Oh they can laugh if they like Because this time you know you're right You can feel the wisdom growing inside Oh they can laugh if they like Because this time you know you're right You can feel the wisdom growing inside Oh they can laugh if they like Because this time you know you're right You can feel the wisdom growing inside
