Timothy Palmer - Child Lyrics

Well I know that there were days
You thought you'd never make it through the pouring rain
And I heard that there were nights
You couldn't make peace with the starry skies
Yeah I know that there were times
You had the words in order they just wouldn't rhyme
And I've seen the fiery darts
Flying through the air and toward your wounded heart
But there's one thing you've got to know
I'm the fire that keeps you warm against the winter's snow
There's one thing you've got to learn
I'm the drop that cools your tongue against the summer's burn
Well I've seen the passing glance
The one saying you won't give me a passing chance
And I've felt the bitter cold
That sends shivers down your spine into your tattered soul
But there's one thing you've got to know
I'm the fire that keeps you warm against the winter snow
And there's one thing you've got to learn
I'm the drop that cools your tongue against the summer's burn
If there's one thing we need to feel
It's that the breeze that moves the trees is so much more than real
If there's one thing I need to say
Before our days like Autumn leaves all drift away
It's child don't you know by now I would never ever leave you hanging
Child don't you know by now I would never leave you high and dry
Child don't you know by now I would never ever leave you hanging
Child don't you know by now I would never leave you high and dry
Well I know you've had it bad
Seen days and things I know you wish you never had
But I held your wounded soul
Felt the pieces come together making your life whole
