《pencil full of lead》的歌詞如下:
Out in the back alleys,
On the playground in the sun,
Playing our favourite games,
No parents and no fuss,
Kids were free and unbound,
As the rainbows appear
A memory, the smell of sunscreen.
I want it back.
Underneath my window,
On the landing outside my door,
Crumpled pencil full of lead.
Lay there forever now,
Unravelled from its toy,
Yet so determined then
And the writing it contained,
Each line each stroke, so profound,
How could it know, that it would be
The only thing left of my youth?
Underneath my window.
And now I'm grown up and gone,
And my memories are gone too,
But I'll never let go of you.
Underneath my window.
Everyday I pass by,
The same old landing still there,
A reminder of what was,
A promise of what could have been.
And I'll never let go.
Underneath my window.
