The Child

candyland dreams
rocking horse giggles
comforting hugs
innocent wiggles
trusting caresses
promising love
these are the things
the heart dreams of
these are the things
the child dreams of

rainbows and stars
harmless desires
sleeping beauties
warm cozy fires
passion for life
hope for more love
these are the things
the soul dreams of
these are the things
the child dreams of

and the saddest thing
is love is defiled
for we leave it behind
afraid it's too wild
and we learn to comform
and we learn to be mild
and we learn to deny
that we are the child

merry-go-rounds
bucking horsey rides
rolling in grass
and sliding down slides
piggy-back hugs
sleeping in safe arms
these are the things
the heart calls charms
these are the things
the child calls charms

cut out snowflakes
cuddle up books
sliding down poles
magical looks
the breathless squeeze
the power of love
these are the things
the soul dreams of
these are the things
the child dreams of

and the saddest thing
is love is defiled
for we leave it behind
afraid it's too wild
and we learn to comform
and we learn to be mild
and we learn to forget
that we are the child
