To A Child

(álbum: Walk The Dog & Light The Light - 1993)

What is life
Did you read about it
In a magazine?
Silent lies
Never give you what you need
Is there hope
For a mother
And an elf on speed?

Kiss the sun hello
My child's in the park
Make your life a loving thing
I'm so tired
You're so wired
And I'm a poet
Without a poem
And you are my child

"So serene"
I read about us
In a magazine
Then why are we
Crying by the washing machine?
Let's run away child
And follow a dream

Kiss the sun hello
My child's in the park
Make your life a loving thing
The park is late
The wind is strong
The trees have eyes
And you are my song
My lovely song

What is love?
Child I am here
To stand by you
And you will find
Your own way
Hard and true
And I'll find mine
'Cause I'm growing with you

Kiss the sun hello
God and Goddess
Make his life a loving thing
And if I smile
As you reach above
The climbing bars
To see the stars
You are my love
My love

I'll miss you
How many years?
