I was a wayward child The weight of the world that I held deep inside Life was a winding road And I learned many things little ones shouldn't know
But I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time's rolled by Still I feel like that child as I look at the moon Maybe I grew up a little too soon
Funny how one can learn To grow numb to the madness and block it away I left the worst unsaid Let it all dissipate and I try to forget
But I closed my eyes Steadied my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And the time rolled by Still I feel like a child as I look at the moon Maybe I grew up a little too soon
Nearing the edge Oblivious I almost Fell right over A part of me Will never be quite able To feel stable That woman-child falling inside Was on the verge of fading Thankfully I woke up in time
Guardian angel I sail away on an ocean with you by my side Orange clouds roll by They burn into your image And you're still alive
As I close my eyes Steady my feet on the ground Raised my head to the sky And though time rolls by Still I feel like a child as I look at the moon Maybe I grew up a little too soon
