Child Come Home

How it hurts me to watch you

How it hurts me to see

How you go on your own way

How you think you are free

But you're only a shadow

Of what you someday will be

When you wind down your mainspring

And turn your eyes back on Me

Though I know that day will be coming

In the meantime it grieves

To see you wasting your moments

Moments you'll never retrieve

Walking solo down the side streets

Reaching out for fantasies

Trying to conquer all your loneliness

By giving in to the disease

Child, come home

Child, come home

Child, come home

Child, come home
