Space Child

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?
