Child
Cherish sweet child, the joy's of your youth
Cherish each moment
For you'll soon learn the truth
Wrap each moment of carefree play
Tuck it safely away, for a much grey'er day
Hold on to your dream's
Of castle's in the sky
Of rescuing princesses
In tower's so high
Savour each new experence
Like a man tasting wine
For no amount of riches
Could buy pleasure's so fine
A gift of happiness, placed on you at birth
Before the realities, of the pain on this earth
So never wish
To be older, than you are today
And let the sweet smile
Of innocence on your face alway's stay
