drawer back the curtain
let the sun stream in. so tell me a story
when you're ready
begin. speak of the peaceful
the gracious
the wise. let the world hear our laughter
before it dies. with a beginning
there must be an end. what is the truth of that my friend. from the sound of the joyous
the gentle
the mild. please look out at life
with the eyes of a child. from the eyes of a child
keep out darkness and let in light. let the eyes of a child
see little things that will give him peace
and fill his life. short is the memory
but long is the hate. for peace on the earth
how long must we wait?
think of the colours
the seasons
the sun. put an end to the sorrows
that we have begun. from the eyes of a child
keep out darkness and let in light. let the eyes of a child
see little things that will give him peace
and fill his life. drawer back the curtain
the stage is all set. and start on a story
we'll never forget. tell all the hopeful
the loving
the mild. then look out at life
with the eyes of a child.
