Clouds from chimneys rise
There’s something wild and free
The river always runs
Away from here and you and me

Ah honeychild
Oh my honeychild

These stones are in your hands
Through the air, across the sea
Passing over skipping waves
With all these anchor chains around my feet

Ah honeychild
Ah save me honeychild
Honeychild
Mmm oh my honeychild
Ah honeychild

Hold me closer, closer still and
Closer, say I always will

Hold me through this darkened world
Hold me closer, my honeychild

Honeychild
Clouds from chimneys rise
There’s something wild and free
Passing over my head
Like all the things I’ll never be

Oh honeychild
Oh my honeychild

Ah, oh my honeychild
Oh my honeychild

Mmm oh honeychild
Oh my honeychild

Aah, hoh
Oh my, save me now
Save me honeychild
Oh save me honeychild, now
Passing over my head
Like all the things I’ll never be
I’ll never be
I’ll never be
I’ll never be
