Child (Acoustic Version)

(album: Green Man - 1996)

Sleep peacefully now my child
I hope that you go away
To a place where your dreams can play
Wipe all the tears from your eyes
There is a sky of blue
This is your time of truth

Like a bird high on the wind
May you fly away
Like a snowfall in the spring
May you cares melt away

Child, innocent child
Our hope lies inside
Your starry eyes
My innocent child

Hero, now that you are free
You have no need to fear
So go out and find your smile

Like a candle in the stream
May you float away
Like a feather on the breeze
May you blow away

Child, innocent child
Our hope lies inside
Your starry eyes
My innocent child

Like a candle
Like a snowfall
Like a feather
Like a bird: fly away
Like a candle
Like a snowfall
Like a feather
Like a bird: fly away

Child, innocent child
Our hope lies inside
Your starry eyes
My innocent child

Like a candle
Like a snowfall
Like a feather
Like a bird: fly away
Child, innocent child
My innocent child

Like a candle
Like a snowfall
Like a feather
Like a bird: fly away
Child, innocent child
Fly away

Like a candle
Like a snowfall
Like a feather
Like a bird: fly away
Child, innocent child
My innocent child

Like a candle
Like a snowfall
Like a feather
Like a bird: fly away
Child, innocent child
Fly away

Sleep peacefully now my child
I hope that you go away
To a place where you dreams can play
