Hey Dark Eyed Child
Hey Dark Eyed Child
I see you weeping.
Who gave you those
tears in your eyes?
People I once loved, she said.
Hey Dark Eyed Child
I see you sleeping.
Who put those dreams
in your head?
I got them from the clouds and stars, she said.
Hey Dark Eyed Child
I saw your heart the other day
Who shattered that
beautiful soul?
Man did, she sighed.
Hey Dark Eyed Child
I see you making your own way
Who gave you that light
I see you shining with?
The sun just up and kissed me, she beamed.
Hey Dark Eyed Child
I know you tired of
hearing me speak but
I just had to ask,
who made you?
Me, she grinned, I did.
