I've been tried and scared beyond the limits of my faith And I've been on the rack they call despair And I have felt the universe quite alien and cold And terror's icy fingers touch my hair
But child, - child! - child, - child! - I could believe Maybe for now or forever, Child, - child! - child, - child! - love is reborn And nobody's lost or alone.
I had come a long way and was tired to my soul Grasping at the relics of my youth And feeling that the vision that still haunted my life Was but a dull reflection of the truth
And child, - child! - child, - child! - I could believe Maybe for now or forever, Child, - child! - child, - child! - love is reborn And nobody's lost or alone.
I give you tomorrow and the life that you will run And I can see the future in your eyes You know nothing of the world that we have left behind You start again without our clinging ties
So child, - child! - child, - child! - heir to the light Follow the way that's unwinding. And child, - child! - child, - child! - in your new world Who will be lost or alone?
