Child in My Heart

Child in my heart, come out,
Come out, wherever you are.
Bring back my dreams so
I may wish upon the star.


The star of long ago...
Life was shiny and new.
All I needed then...
Love to see me through.


That was before...
Jack came tumbling down,
When I was a princess
With a golden crown.


That was before...
Humpty Dumpty had his big fall.
I was so smart...
Thought for sure I knew it all.


I've learned not to kiss a frog,
And step on a crack.
I've learned to live for today,
And not look back....


Child in my heart, come out,
come out, wherever you are.
Bring back my dreams so
I may wish upon the star.
