i took a walk by the sea nothing else just for me yesterday was a long long time ago there 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 a life and 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 children took a walk by the sea i d forgotten what it meant to me some things we should carry from the past there s a boy and he s singing and in the wind his words are ringing his innocence it is buried in us all now i look and see that boy inside of me may have seen a storm or two but the dream s alive and i i i look to the children i look to the children and i look around so many so far down just search inside yourself cause the dream s alive and i i i look to the children i look to the children
