Don't leave the child alone
With strangers far away
Together we want to see the moon
From the same place where we used to play
A child bright shining as the sun
Don't be afraid 'cos I know where it all began
Don't say another word
I've heard all I need to hear
Has it never in your lazy mind occurred
Only I know what she wants to share
A child bright shining as the sun
Don't be afraid ?cos I know where it all began
Among the lost and wild
Are the eyes of a young mother
In nameless agony for her child
She's lost, they can't have one another
She's standing all alone
Questioning the times of changes
With her lips bursting to pray
