Sweet Child
Dazzling blue, so innocent and true
A child’s eyes open to a world anew
Smiling and laughing, life’s just begun
There’s a whole run ahead for this little one
Sweet child, resting your head
Close those eyes and dream sweetly,
Time for bed
Tomorrow, a new day waits
To remorse for all of yesterday’s mistakes
Planning for your future,
So you may grow big and strong
But alas, spending all day planning
Leaves today gone
Sometime we must just ride the waves
Solely flowing, not try to stand up in a hurricane
Sweet darling, rest your head
Don’t mind me, go to bed
Flutter your eyelids as you head for the land of Dreams
Remember child, tomorrow will redeem.
