Don’t Hurt Child
Don't hurt, child, I know you do. I was young and wild, once too
Let the summer storm clear the sky when you cry
Don't hurt, child. You need to find your way in the madness of the day
And if it don't break you, it will be your song
May the love that we know keep us strong, don't hurt, child
Baby comes into the world in a veil of divine love, gets caught up in thunder and rain
What were you dreaming of? Don't don't hurt, child
I took my stand but the key is in your hand. Heal your wing and fly
May the love that you know get you by. Don't hurt, my baby child
