To a child

What is love?
Did you read about it in a magazine?
Silent lies
Never give you what you need
Is there hope
For a mother and an elf on speed?

Kiss the sun hello, child in the park
Make your life a lovin' thing
I'm so tired, you're so wired, I'm a poet
Without a poem and you are my child

"So serene" Read about us in a magazine
Why are we crying by the washing machine?
Let's run away child and follow a dream

Kiss the sun hello, child in the park
Make your life a lovin' thing
The park is late, the wind is strong
The trees have eyes and you are my song,
My lovely song

What is love?
Child, I am here to stand by you
And you will find
Your own way hard and true
And I'll find mine
'Cause I'm growin' with you

Kiss the sun hello,
God and Goddess
Make your life a lovin' thing
And if I smile
As you reach above the climbin' bars
To see the stars
You are my love, child, my love
