Through the Eyes of a Child Lyrics

THROUGH THE EYES OF A CHILD (Track #10)

 

Ah Garden hose

Raining down water on a rose bud nose

Ah Look at them swim

Up and down in a river of wind

Ah Ants at will

Carrying cargo up ta’ cricket hill

Ah look at them skate

Linear lines at full gate

 

These things I remember

These things I have filed

These things I remember

Seen through the eyes of a child

 

Ah Sunrise blast

Walkin’ on sand near a sea of glass

Ah Look at it glow

Palm trees swayin’ to and fro

Ah Swimmin’ pool

Floatin on tubes and lookin’ real cool

Ah look at me dive

Head under water and still alive

 

These things I remember

These things I have filed

These things I remember

Seen through the eyes of a child

 

Ah No more trikes

Graduated ta’ two wheel bikes

Ah Look at my scars

Head first over the handle bars

Chocolate milk carton

Very first day in kindergarten

Ah Red jelly beans

The blue dye smell of brand new jeans

 

These things I remember

These things I have filed

These things I remember

Seen through the eyes, seen through the eyes

Seen through the eyes of a child
