Laura Nyro - To a Child lyrics

Tiny child, you were a miracle to me A miracle in you will always be And now that I have such a tot I'm so tired and my miracle is not 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" I've even got 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 and 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
