I knew this kid, his name was Micheal He was only 4 years old We sat on a rock and started talkin' And he told me things I didn't know He said yesterday he was Indian And how he played with buffalo Well i got the send that he had been there And he made me really want to go Chorus: I remember waiting all year for December Thought God was crying when it rained That the stars were fireflies Dreams were real and big as life It was forever, everyday I was tuckin' in my little girl She held my hand and we said a prayer I prayed, "Bless Grandma with the angels" And she said, "Hey Mom, shes standin over there" Well, I couldn't see her but I don't doubt it Maybe 'cause I'm older and less wise What if Heavens all around us But only seen through children's eyes (Repeat Chorus) They say when your older your a child again But do we have to wait 'till then (Repeat Chorus) Forever Knew this kid his name was micheal
