Little child, well you've just turned sixteen
And you're all alone
Little mary said she once had to leave her home
But it's alright, I can live with that
And many others
'Cause if you take it from the heart
You know the best is yet to come
Mary, she made me get up and read the bible
I tried to tell her that I don't understand
Mary said "Listen, the words are on the pages"
I tried to tell her that I don't understand
Little child, when I walked the streets of berlin
I could feel a vibe
Little mary said she saw the same thing in my eyes
But it's alright, I can live with that
And many others
'Cause if you take it from the heart
You know the best is yet to come
Little child, I believe there is a soul deep inside of you
Little mary said that there's one deep inside me too
But its alright, I can live with that
And many others
'Cause if you take it from the heart
You know the best is yet to come
