The Lost Children (Live / 1996 Remastered) - Gordon Lightfoot
Written by：Gordon Lightfoot/Elliot Mazer

Down the hall their voices ring
Their feet are on the run

Phantoms on the winter sky
Together they do come

Faded lips and eyes of blue
They're carried in the wind

Their laughter filled
The countryside but they'll not laugh again

All the games are ended now
Their voices have been stilled

Their fathers built the tools
Of war by which they all were killed

Their mothers made the uniforms
Showing which side they were on

And the young boys were the middle
Men for the guns to prey upon

You've seen the fires in the night
Watched the devil as he smiles

You've heard a mother's mournful cry
As she searches for her child

You've seen the lines of refugees
The faces of despair

And wondered at the wise men
Who never seem to care

Goodbye you lost children
God speed you on your way

Your little beds are empty now
Your toys are put away

Your mother sings a lullaby as
She gazes at the floor

Your father builds more weapons
And marches out once more

Down the hall their voices ring
Their feet are on the run

Phantoms on the winter sky
Together they do come

Faded lips and eyes of blue
They're carried in the wind

Their laughter filled
The countryside but they'll not laugh again
