The third segment, titled “The morning”, includes this Ray Thomas song, a cheerful upbeat description of kids playing in the eyes of an adult narrator.
The instrumental intro and ending have a circus like trumpet lead in. This was played on Mike Pinder’s Mellotron MKII sampler, like the one picture...
[Instrumental Orchestra Intro]
[Verse 1]
Balloons flying, children sighing
What a day to go kite flying
Breeze's cool, away from school
Cowboys fighting out a duel
[Chorus]
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
[Verse 2]
Fishes biting, so exciting
Lunchtime sounds so inviting
Angler Bill, he gets a thrill
Sitting, watching bobbing quill
[Chorus]
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
[Bridge]
Yesterday's dreams are tomorrow's sighs
Watch children play, they seem so wise
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 4]
Mary Green, today's a queen
While thousand dollies are a dreaming
Cotton frocks and golden locks
Her palace is an orange box
[Chorus]
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
[Instrumental Outro]
