Child Songtext

von Natalie Holmes

Living in a house where I get lost,
I'm tripping over my jeans,
The black and white world from years ago,
Is creeping up on me.

Crawling up stairs, chasing butterflies,
Tearing sewn up seams.
I'm just a child trying on the world and it's too big for me.

Feeling so small,
Oooh but I need to grow.
I'm gonna pull up,
Oooh my sleeves and stand on my toes.
I've never been wise enough or tough enough,
For this daunting place we call home.
I'm just a child so...

I was always told not to worry about,
What all the big kids think,
But I've started walking on my chosen path,
Where image is everything.

And I'm keeping hold of all I've got,
Cos I'm still gonna win.
I'm just a child trying on the world and I'm gonna make it fit.

I'm feeling so small,
Oooh but I need to grow.
I'm gonna pull up,
Oooh my sleeves and stand on my toes.
I've never been wise enough or tough enough,
For this daunting place we call home.
I'm just a child so...

I'm just a child so...

I'm just a child so help me onto my feet,
Help me onto my feet (help me up),
Help me onto my feet (help me up)...

I'm feeling so small,
Oooh but I need to grow.
I'm gonna pull up,
Oooh my sleeves and stand on my toes.
I've never been wise enough or tough enough,
For this daunting place we call home.
I'm just a child so...
