Laura Nyro - To a Child lyrics

rate me

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

Child in the park

Make your life a lovin' thing

I'm so tired

You're so wired

And I'm a poet

Without a poem

And you are my child

"So serene"

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

Child in the park

Make your life a lovin' 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

You own way hard and true

And I'll find mine

'Cause I'm growin' with you

Kiss the sun hello

God & Goddess

Make his life a lovin' thing

And if I smile as you reach

above the climbin' bars

To see the stars

You are my love

Child my love
