Wisdom of a Child

I know you're only children and your story's just begun

But you possess a secret, old as stone

For in that brief beginning, before the race is run

Lives a simple song that calls us home

Your hearts are free of prejudice; your love is free of shame

You're not afraid to pose the question, "Why?"

Happiness that holds no guilt and sorrow without blame

And a spirit that is boundless as the sky

Lead me down the golden pathways of your youth

Inside these boots my aching feet are longing to run wild

In the sound of your laughter, there's a ring of truth
