因为大众对杰克逊的曲解,杰克逊写了这首歌,但在歌曲里面没有怨恨,没有诅咒,只有天真纯洁的心事,和孩童一样的幻想。开始听这首歌的时候,并不特别喜欢,但听多了,就迷上了他的淡淡的旋律,还有音乐里面表现出来的情感。不娇柔,不造作,不煽情。
歌词:《childhood》
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for the world that I come from
'Cause I've been looking around
In the lost and found of my heart...
No one understands me
They view it as such strange eccentricities...
'Cause I keep kidding around
Like a child, but pardon me...
People say I'm not okay
'Cause I love such elementary things...
It's been my fate to compensate,
for the Childhood
I've never known...
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for that wonder in my youth
Like pirates in adventurous dreams,
Of conquest and kings on the throne...
Before you judge me, try hard to love me,
Look within your heart then ask,
Have you seen my Childhood?
(music)
People say I'm strange that way
'Cause I love such elementary things,
It's been my fate to compensate,
for the Childhood I've never known...
Have you seen my Childhood?
I'm searching for that wonder in my youth
Like fantastical stories to share
The dreams I would dare, watch me fly...
Before you judge me, try hard to love me.
The painful youth I've had
Have you seen my Childhood.
