Young hearts beat fast All in an innocent body Sweet smiles, happy faces Greet their Mom and their Dad When the light our lives has gone Can you tell me how do we carry on? There's too many young souls Lost in this way Don't let the children go There's so many people taken away Shine a little light Let them grow Their love is light And it all shines in their eyes Love for you and me Strong enough to reach to the skies When the light our lives has gone Can you tell me (tell me) How do we carry on? There's too many young souls Lost in their way Don't let the children go (Spirit of a child) There's so many people taken away Shine a little light Let them grow (Like the spirit of a child) Shine a little light, a little light (Spirit) (Like the spirit of a child)
