Sweet Child in Us

Текст песни

[Verse 1: Male] There’s a small hand in my memory Pressed against the kitchen glass Watching rain make rivers down the pane While the supper hour passed [Verse 2: Female] There’s a paper crown in the drawer And a name we used to call A little brave heart learning how to stand After every little fall [Pre-Chorus: Male and Female] We grew tall, we learned to hide What still trembles deep inside [Chorus: Duet] Sweet child in us, stay near Keep your wonder through the years When the road turns hard and long Teach our grown hearts where they belong Sweet child in us, be strong You were here before the fear Take my hand and walk with me You are still the truest part of me [Verse 3: Male] I remember chalk on both my knees And the porch light calling me How the world was wide as an open door And tomorrow came for free [Verse 4: Female] I remember songs without a reason And the trust in every face Let me find that open-hearted kindness Let me make it room to stay [Pre-Chorus: Duet] We grew tall, we learned to hide What still trembles deep inside [Chorus: Duet] Sweet child in us, stay near Keep your wonder through the years When the road turns hard and long Teach our grown hearts where they belong Sweet child in us, be strong You were here before the fear Take my hand and walk with me You are still the truest part of me [Bridge: Female] If you’re tired, lay your worries down You don’t have to earn your place [Bridge: Male] I will guard the things you dreamed I will meet you with a gentler face [Final Chorus: Duet] Sweet child in us, stay near Keep your wonder through the years Though the world may change its song You can show our hearts where they belong Sweet child in us, be strong You were here before the fear Take my hand and walk with me You are still the truest part of me [Outro: Duet] Still the truest part of me Sweet child, stay near
