Through the Eyes of a Child Songtext

von Ken Hensley

I once read a story
'bout a world full of love
Of freedom and glory
As seen through the eyes of a child.

We learnt to believe
That the earth is all ocean and ground,
Though we were soon to see
That there wasn's enough to go round

I saw words and wars
Though my books had told me
My life would be one long song.
Man made laws although laws make man
So uncertain,
So uncertain what's right and what's wrong...

Confused without reason,
Stumbling helplessly day by day,
It was all so deceiving,

For that child was me
And I can't find the book anymore,
For that child was me
And I can't find the book anymore,
For that child was me
And I can't find the book anymore...
