sue is hiding

i want to go outside
play in the sunshine
free to find my place
i hear a child calling
come and play
come and play
lead the way
its your turn now
my child is lost
maybe taken
im not sure
only a short moment in time
so long ago
gone forever
a childish voice calling
come and play
come and play
lead the way
its your turn now
memories just a photo
could be i was there before
it all seems so familiar
but i was only a child
a distant voice calling
come and play
come and play
lead the way
its your turn now
no memory
no past to share
only a short moment in time
so long ago
gone forever
people all around me
where were they
to help me then
helpless to help me now
their child is lost too
maybe taken
im not sure
only a short moment in time
so long ago
gone forever
a crazy dream calling
come and play
come and play
lead the way
its your turn now
