Lyrics

I can remember your cali-coated joys
And your ease, like the breeze.
You took us to a neighbor land,
Where neighbors there could understand
the human touch.
Mistakes didn’t mean that much.
But now you’re begging pardon
For standing in our garden.
Now we wonder why we felt so free.
Party child…my little party child…
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you glow.
Fall asleep, why did you fall asleep?
Did you think your dream would “keep”?
Where did you go?

You let yourself stand naked so that everyone could see
That we were so very pure.
To lands of loving we yearned to go.
You took it on yourself to show it was OK.
We were made that way.
Your presence always blessed us.
But with the gift you’ve left us
We don’t quite know what to do.
Party child…my little party child…
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you glow.
Fall asleep, why did you fall asleep?
Did you think your dream would “keep”?
Where did you go?

Did he take away your laugh to keep you silent?
Did your love for everyone to him seem violent?
Please stand up and dust your shoes.
Give us jokes, re-light your fuse.
You can do it if you choose, don’t you know?

I can’t believe you’d let them take you away
to a place……no human race.
Come on back and take us home
Where we never knew there were such joys known.
Revive our hearts.
Finish what you start.
‘Cause you were so willing, but now it seems you’re killing
The one the very way to make us free.
Party child…my little party child…
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you glow.
Fall asleep, why did you fall asleep?
Did you think your dream would “keep”?
Where did you go?

Did he take away your laugh to keep you silent?
Did your love for everyone to him seem violent?
Please stand up and dust your shoes.
Give us jokes, relight your fuse.
You can do it if you choose…don’t go.
