Luyện nghe bài hát Kingdom of Childhood

(Words and Music by Baez)

The ship sails the seven seas
Has brought me to my knees
not much to my liking
The standing on the rock
Are innocent and know not
the tide comes in
Death rides it like a

The mountains above the mist
And the golden prince never kissed
He may die
And why do I to ride with
The prince whose horse is white?
Because we ride together
Our lives are forever

is temporary
Believe me, I
It can as a shining crystal
And as the melting snow
Come all you lads and
The of Childhood passes

Oh, but I am hardy in these
Or I'd have sunk down my tears
To the earth beneath my
I want to the slings and arrows
That Hamlet about
But harrowed,
He was to a ragged defeat

There was a to his madness
But overcome by pride and
He did not
Surely his was a grave mistake
How many do we really calculate?
Isn't it true,
Tragedies happen when you're

is temporary
Believe me, I
It can as a shining crystal
And leave as the melting
Come all you and lasses
The Kingdom of Childhood

You archangels, you some nerve
To all of this you are absurd
You even a choice
Do you all? I think you may
And is there for you to say
But
Why God took back your

SIlence is golden, I
And you are your weight
In wreaths of purest
While we are with debts and bets
And aircraft and jets
I call out
Give me an archangel for

is temporary
Believe me, I
It can arrive as a shining
And leave as the melting
all you lads and lasses
The Kingdom of Childhood

Me in the at the break of dawn
The candles of the night on
The chimes from the hollow
I too am worth my in gold
But the and I are old
the mint runs out
Our real lives will

It was misfortune who you up
To pour you the dregs from her cup
her aside
The will appear with the mockingbird
Who stays in the canyon and is heard
in his song
He be wrong

is temporary
Believe me, I
It can as a shining crystal
And leave as the melting
all you lads and lasses
The Kingdom of Childhood
another one just beyond
Act quickly before gone
