This is a pretty sad song.
It says that the most fulfilling part of our lives is in childhood, before any potentials are fulfilled, but when everything still seems possible. As we grow up, our ideals become corrupted, and to fulfill those ideals by living them out would in fact be a disaster.
At best, our actual lives will fall far short of the dreams we had as children. The most fulfilling thing we can experience as adults is to allow a new generation to feel the joy we had when we were young, when we dreamt that anything was possible. To break this cycle is a tragedy.
