The Child in Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some people never
Settle for the one
One love forever
Searching for the sun
Heat-blasted faces
Promises at dawn
A constant flux of stages
Before they're gone

[Chorus]
How do you live so gracefully?
(And would you show me)
How can I save the child in me?
(A world the child would see)
How do you fault so gracefully?
Serenity in a shattered world
The child in me

[Verse 2]
Harlots by the half-moon
Charlatans by wine
Seeking out your pleasure
The sweet concubine
That abrasive acquaintance
It's a wonder how we fall
Stopping at these stations before they're gone
[Chorus]
How do you live so gracefully?
(And would you show me)
How can I save the child in me?
(A world the child would see)
How do you fault so gracefully?
Serenity in a shattered world
The child in me

[Verse 3]
I've been waiting
Feel the love rebuilding
Off the edge now
Falling down
'Cause I've been waiting
I've been biding my time
On the edge now
Falling down
[Chorus]
How do you live so gracefully?
(And would you show me)
How can I save the child in me?
(A world the child would see)
How do you fault so gracefully?
Serenity in a shattered world
The child in me
The child in me
The child in me
