SHILO
Neil Diamond
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
