Eyes Of A Child (by Michael McDonald)

The eyes of a child, so innocent and pure
A child's heart is full of song
Take their tiny hand
And lead them to the light
As adults we see pain in the world
And it sometimes don't seem right

But through the eyes of a child
The world seems magical
There's a sparkle in their eyes
They've yet to realize
The darkness in their soul

The beauty of their smile
Adventurous and wild
Life is kinda gay
But it doesn't seem that way
Through the eyes of a child

So, don't give up
Even when the road seems long
Just find that child inside of you
Yeah, you've got to find you
Spread your wings and fly
To the brightest star
If you want, I can even get my friend Steve to detail your car
For about twenty bucks

Through the eyes of a child
The world seems magical
There's a sparkle in their eyes
They've yet to realize
The darkness in their soul

The beauty of their smile
Adventurous and wild
Sure, life is kinda gay
But it doesn't seem that way
Through the eyes of a child

Got an eye on my hand!
I've got an eye on my hand!
I've got an eye on my hand!
But still I cant find you!
An eye on my hand!
Where have you gone, girl?
An eye on my hand!
I'm coming up behind you
Eye on my hand!
Don't turn around now
Cause I'm right there
I'm coming up behind you!

Through the eyes of a child
The world seems magical
There's a sparkle in their eyes
Yet to realize
The bastards they really are!

The beauty of their smile
Adventurous and wild
Sure, life is kinda gay
But it doesn't seem that way
Through the eyes of a child
Sure, life is kinda gay
But it doesn't seem that way
Through the eyes of a child
