The Eyes Of A Child
Air Supply · The Christmas Album
Of life's long hidden meaning
For the dreams and the plans made in your youth
Does the thrill to achieve
Match the warm hidden feeling
That lies so still and lives in you
In the eyes of a child there is joy there is laughter
There is hope there is trust a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child
You have found the place
To walk the path you've chosen
You'll never miss the world you've left behind
When life gives life
It's happiness unbroken
When you give love it's love you'll find
In the eyes of a child there is joy there is laughter
There is hope there is trust a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child
In the eyes of a child there is joy there is laughter
There is hope there is trust a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child
Than the look in the eyes of a child
Than the look in the eyes of a child
