Shilo

Young child with dreams

Dreaming each dream on your own

When children play

Seems like you end up alone

Papa says he'd love to be with you

If he had more time

So you turn to the only friend you can find

There in your mind

Shilo, when I was young

I used to call your name

When no one else would come

Shilo, you always came

And we'd play

Young girl with fire

Something said she understood

I wanted to fly

She made me feel like I could

Held my hand out, and I let her take me

Blind as a child

All I saw was the way that she made me smile

She made me smile

Shilo, when I was young

I used to call your name

When no one else would come

Shilo, you always came

And you'd stay

Had a dream, and it filled me with wonder

She had other plans

Got to go, and I know that you'll understand

I understand

Shilo, when I was young

I used to call your name

When no one else would come

Shilo, you always came

Come today

Shilo
