Little Child

Little child, your look - it pains me It's an answer your eyes seek Can't you see what shadow of a soul I've come to be tired of the scene

Little child, come sit beside me It's so much I have to say Stay as free as high winds on the seas No destiny bringin' lonely tears

Smile, live today, and leave the past behind Live it up day by day, and surely you may find That both sorrow and tomorrow Aren't worth a thought or two Look at me and teach me to live again

Little child, your look elates me It's an answer your eyes give Now, you see, I'm on the road again I'm bringin' out what child there's in me

Smile, live today, and leave the past behind Live it up day by day, and surely you may find That both sorrow and tomorrow Aren't worth a thought or two Look at me and teach me to live again Live again

Sing, live today, this moment can't endure Oh… let us reach for the stars - we'll make it, I'm that sure Be it sadness, be it gladness, we can start it all anew Look at me, look at me, аnd the sun comes ѕhining through
