Child Lyrics

Child lyrics

FRASER/RODGERS/KOSSOFF/KIRKE







Child you're talking of freedom 

painted on your garden wall 

it's not there at all 

child you're talking of wisdom 

you say wisdom is a golden rule 

you ain't no fool 

but you don't know who it is 

who calls you name 

in the light of the golden moon 

you don't know who it is who brought you here 

and chained up your heart 

so soon 



Child you're life is a fairytale 

and it's not the same 

and the clouds 

you're hiding behind 

in your misty mind have disappeared 

like a sailor far from the shores of your dreams 

and far from the love of your home 

sailor lost on your own misty seas 

and the chains on your heart, baby 

might be my love 

might be my love 



It's so confusing 

and you feel that you're loosing yourself 

but, there over the mountain 

you thought you'd never have to climb 

there's a road 

reaching and stretching 

to the corner of your mind 

like a river casts aside the dust 

and grows and grows as it flows 

the feeling deep inside of you 

must break like a dam 

so set you free 

so set you free 

so set you free
