Sweet innocent child, with your open eyes You've seen us for who We really are And I know that we will be tomorrow So that hope can have it's glory day And I wish that this world will embrace you from magic stars and mystery My open heart Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child I know you, I've seen your face before you brought me To this open door, afraid to walk through Please take my hand And I know that we will be tomorrow So that hope can have it's glory day And I wish that this world embrace you from magic stars and mystery My open heart Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child And I see where we'll go from here 'Cause love doesn't break With the right amount of care In your hands is whom you've choosen to be Life is a freedom Now go out there and be free Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child Why did we make it so hard, this life is so complicated Until we see it through the eyes of a child
