To A Child

To A Child
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
