lyrics

CHILD OF MY HEART

So leave me here and fall away
Into the arms of sleep, song of the night
You must go away, relax in sheets
That keep you warm, keep you from my sight
Pull down the blind, turn out the light

What will you dream, what will you find
Layered in the secrets of your soul?
A note, a face, a crashing wave,
It's running young, but running old
My deep delight, my love untold

But they're lashing at me
The waves are crashing on me
The waves are lashing on me
These waves....

I'll hold you close, but hold you far
Just as I will, just as I can
Go to these strings, child of my heart
Child in the boy, child in the man
Child in this world, child of our time

Then I’ll walk these streets to my city home
Hold my desire, hold it strong
Stare down the stars, stare down the fire
Till time reveals what love combines
Till time reveals the parting line
