Innocent Child Sean M Payne
Innocent Child
by: Sean M Payne
A Child was born�
Of love and need�
Innocence was there�
What does it mean�?
Everything is lost�
Once it�s taken away�
Alright and so the child prayed�
And he prayed�
For something of truth�
He prayed for the love but it was used�
If he was to cry to you�
Would you do the things that you do�?
Oh oh oh�ah ah ah�
Oh oh oh�ah ah ah�
Set the child loose�
To run beyond the stars�
Let the child roam�
Free and far�
And in this little boy�
Was a love greater than you�ll ever know�
Greater than you�ll ever show�
And he prayed�
For something of truth�
He prayed for the love but it was used�
If he was to cry to you�
Would you still do the things that you do�?
And he ran� He ran for miles�
And he swam�
Well he swam in a river of sorrows�
Until something was found�
Inside the dream�Inside the dream
Inside the dream�
Damn your hands�! Damn your eyes�!
Damn these words you keep hidden inside�
One of those little lies� One of those little lies�
One of those little lies� One of those little lies�
What is this light that I see�? (What is this light that I see�)
What is this life made out to be...? (What is this life made out to be�)
Was an Innocent Child�He was an Innocent Child�
Was an Innocent Child�He was an Innocent Child�
