Disappearing

They'd shout at me when I was chasing rainbows
 They'd shout at me for staring at the moon
 Nothing came soon enough to satisfy me
 The fun was always over all to soon
 The child in me didn't know where the end was
 The child in me didn't know things sometimes cost
 The child in me had faith that there was some way
 To find your way back home when you got lost
 Little by little, I'm disappearing
 Little by little, I'm learning fear
 I'm stuck on the endless freeway going nowhere
 Little by little, I disappear
 They'd shout at me when they caught me dreaming
 They'd shout at me when I climbed too high
 Little drops of water were amazing
 Just like the creatures in the clouds up in the sky
 The child in me ran breathless down the hillside
 The child in me always made up songs
 The child in me could see somebody naked
 And never think that anything was wrong
 Little by little, I'm disappearing
 Little by little, I'm learning fear
 I'm stuck on the endless freeway going nowhere
 Little by little, I disappear
