A Child's Mind - Sarantos

Help me

Please shelter me

As a child, I was so young & free

I felt so confident as you carried me

You held me so close & always believed

You instilled in me a sense of purpose & destiny

The world is black & white, as seen thru the eyes of a child

Innocence so pure it lasted for a while

I miss the day, the calm you let me feel

You always believed in me & made everything so real

I miss being a child

I miss feeling a bit wild

No care in the world for me

A child’s mind open for all to see

A child’s mind is so young & free

A child will always believe

A child’s mind once belonged

To you and me

The years have passed on

Many days have come and gone

My intentions once good

My actions now sometimes wrong

Once wide eyed & full of spunk

Now so negative & always drunk

Lost looking in the rain

For that child-like innocence again

I miss being a child

I miss feeling a bit wild

No care in the world for me

A child’s mind open for all to see

A child’s mind is so young & free

A child will always believe

A child’s mind once belonged

To you and me

Instrumental

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

Looking thru the eyes of a child

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

Wish I could do it all the time

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

Looking thru the eyes of a child

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

The world can be so kind

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

Looking thru the eyes of a child

Aaahhhh, Ooohhhh

I miss being a child

I miss feeling a bit wild

No care in the world for me

A child’s mind open for all to see

A child’s mind is so young & free

A child will always believe

A child’s mind once belonged

To you and me

A child doesn’t know how to lie

It used to be mine…
