Make Me Child

     Once, when you were young
     You graced us with your song
     A baby's smile gave us life
     Blue eyes, coat of white
     A mother's love, a father's sympathy
     But you'll be there in spirit's care
     Swimming through the air we breathe
     Crush my glimpse of home
     Crawl in me and taste again
     Dark the night alone
     But it feels so untrue
     I'll never find another friend like you
     Melt, two as one
     Venus joins the sun
     Treachery of my trust
     Now I no longer feel
     A brother's love, a bond unbroken lives
     And voices ring, the peace you bring
     Soaring through eternity
     Bring me light once more
     Feed on me and thrive again
     Rise above the din
     But it feel so bizarre
     I'll never know just how and where you are
     So much to feel here
     So much that gets away
     I'm holding on to dear life to what I have
     Memories when we were young
     Bring pain and joy as one
     Make me child again
     Now, as you grow old
     You leave us with your song
     A babys smile gives you life
     Grey eyes, coat of white
     The songs of time, the season's symphony
     And leaves will fall Like tears so sweet
     Lift me up on high
     Take me where the rivers end
     Change my flesh and song
     Songs that I can't comprehend
     But it feels so bizarre
     I'll never know just how and where you are
     But it feels so untrue
     I'll never find Another friend like you
