Songtext von Child

I don't know quite what's happening And my eyes don't see too clear All I know is I need you here If only to shield me from the mood of the world And hold me and say it doesn't matter But I'm like a child whose dreams are shattered Crowding round me: Images of broken thought Lines of my life now overgrown All I can feel is I'm so alone Without even your bright eyes to reach into my mind And say that in my life I've done right And I'm like a moonchild in the sunlight So cast your thoughts upon me, wherever you are That I may feel you close beside me And hold your hand, for you to guide me Through all these catacombs which freeze me with their touch Unknowing, knowing so much, my mind cries out And I'm like a child when the light's out With a child's fear of the dark
