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
