dar williams – echoes lyrics
when i was a child
i saw the world eyes wide open, yes and
when i was a child
i would believe what people told me, i had
an innocent smile
to go with a child? s hope and faith
? my soul to keep? as people say…
now i look back upon those days
i see that child so far away
and cry
hey-o, hey-o voices echo down the years
hey-o, and wash away my worldy tears
hey-o, hold on
hey-o, hold on
hey-o, hey-o love? s overcome the world i hear
no longer a child
i see the world through a gl-ss darkly, so sad
no longer a child
i see the hard life we? re all living, so bad
that innocent smile
sometimes so crynical and cold
watching the whole world bought and sold
watching a tragedy unfold
but we? re only children growing old
we try
hey-o, hey-o coming from so far away
hey-o, calling out the children say
hey-o, hold on
hey-o, hold on
hey-o, hey-o love is strong is what they say…
hey-o, hey-o with the vision of a child
hey-o, with a sure and hopeful smile
hey-o, hold on
hey-o, hold on
hey-o, hey-o love is gonna win the day…
forever a child
i want to see eyes wide open
i try
i try
