Diamond Neil Shilo lyrics

Written by Neil Diamond
Young child with dreams
Dream ev`ry dream on your own
When children play
seems like you end up alone
Papa says he`d love to be with you
If he had the time
So you turn on the only friend you can find
There in your mind

Shilo, when I was young
I used to call you name
When no one else would come
Shilo, you always came
And we`d play

Young girl with fire
Something said she understood
I wanted to fly
She made me feel like I could

Held my hand out, and I let her take me
Blind as a child
All I saw was the way that she made me smile
She made me smile

Shilo, when I was young
I used to call you name
When no one else would come
Shilo, you always came
And you`d stay

Had a dream, and it filled me with wonder
She had other plans
Got to go, and I know that you`ll understand
I understand

Shilo, when I was young
I used to call you name
When no one else would come
Shilo, you always came
Come today
