The Hooters - Where Do The Children Go

Surrender into the night,
Silently take my hand.
Nobody knows what's inside us,
Nobody understands.
They handed us down a dream,
To live in this lonely town.
But nobody hears the music,
Only the echo of a hollow sound.

Where do the children go,
Between the bright night and darkest day?
Where do the children go,
And who's that deadly piper who leads them away?

Together we make our way,
Passengers on a train.
Whisper a secret forever,
Promises in the rain. No, whoa...
We're leaving it all behind,
While castles are falling down.
We're going where no one can find us.
And if there's a heaven,
We'll find it somehow.

Where do the children go,
Between the bright night and darkest day?
Where do the children go,
And who's that deadly piper who leads them away?

Oh, we're going where no one can find us.
And if there's a heaven,
We'll find it somehow.

Where do the children go,
Between the bright night and darkest day?
Where do the children go,
And who's that deadly piper who leads them away?

Where do the children go,
(Where do the children go?)
Between the bright night and darkest day?
(Bright night and darkest day.)
Where do the children go,
(Where do the children go?)
And who's that deadly piper who leads them away?
(Oooh)

Where do the children go,
(Where do the children go?)
Between the bright night and darkest day?
(Bright night and darkest day.)
Where do the children go,
(Where do the children go, I wanna know?)
And who's that deadly piper who leads them away?
(Away, who leads them away?)

Where do the children go?
