A sea of clouds drowns the day Smiling winter has come to play It's lightning glows in a child's eye By casting shadows in the sky
But the child now grows so weary Longing to return to a day with friends His dream, his wish, his destiny For smiling winter to come to an end
This wintertime child can't play no games Lost in the season of summer pain He lays so still just thinking of His dream, his wish, his destiny, and the sun
Steadily as time goes by The drops lay rest on the window sill There's no truth when winter lies Taking charge of a child's world
But what it doesn't realize my friend Is that a child's world is full of magic Give him the strength and speed of a razor's edge And watch him rip through winter's fabric
For the child's mind is not unknown He slips back into the comforts of home He reads, he writes, he acts out a scene About a child in winter and that child's dream
