05 Child in Me

I’m looking for the child in me
I’m looking for the child in me
In all the people that I’ve known
And all the faces that I’ve seen
Are forgotten friends and memories
With open hearts and sympathies

Have I forgotten who they are
Can I still remember their faces
Set out searching for some memory
Will I find that forgotten friend again

Have I forgotten the child in me
Can I see again my innocent face
Set out searching for who I am
Will I find that forgotten friend again
Want to reach out and be there
Not live again but some how recall
What it was to be young and free
Uninhibited and not out to please

Freedom fighter (who never knew pain)
Heavens child (convicted of no crime)
Short attention (ever watched over)
Carefree child (satisfied to be)

Find the child (inside of me)
Forgotten friend (who I once knew)
Can’t be truly fathered (unconditionally loved)
‘Til I can be a child again (child in me)
Are you the child in me?
