Forever A Child
They say the world's a scary place
you'll know when you grow up
but I just want to stay a kid
let dreams overflow my cup
adults have so much they have to do
responsibilities to take
I just want to close my eyes
pretend I'm not awake
I remember those days
when I was just a child
my heart was at peace
and my mind ran wild
all the excitement in not knowing
what would come the next day
putting up a fight
not being scared away
I know I should be standing up
walking on my own
but there's some comfort in knowing
that I'm not alone
