Shady Dell Songtext
von Tom Goss

Little girl, perfect world
Scrapes her knees on Astroturf
But her father comes and Band-Aid saves the day
Little boy, silly toys
Action figures and Asteroids
Close his eyes and all the world it fades away

Change comes quickly like a bullet from a gun
Takes you places that you never knew you′d love
Places that you can't outrun

Now asleep, trailer home
No one′s told you that you're poor
And you're night as long as your world remains the same
But in school, teachers rules
Takes the fun out of the room
Close your eyes but you are shaken back awake


Change comes quickly like a bullet from a gun
Takes you places that you never knew you′d love
Places that you can′t outrun

But that won't stop me from trying
And it shouldn′t stop you
You change if you decide to
Until then just keep on dreaming
They can't wake you if they try

Ring the bell
Show and tell
Share your tales of Shady Dell
And the place where all of the world remains the same

Change comes quickly like a bullet from a gun
Takes you places that you never knew you′d love
Places that you can't outrun

Little boy, little girl
Takes the bus home after school
Just one glance to know
That some changes are embraced
