Child
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Child, I'm with you, all of the time
When a shadow falls, I'm with you
When you're down, where the darkness crawls
I'm with you, you came down and a shadow fell
Return to you, you came down and a shadow fell
I'm with you, I'm with you
Sleep now, child, what became
Of those brokenhearted ghosts around us?
They're all gone, far away, if they're back
Again they come as fairies
Oh, take my hand, we'll take a ride
To the land of dream beyond the prairie, oh
Child, I'm with you, all of the time
When a shadow falls, I'm with you
When you're down, where the darkness crawls
I'm with you, you came down and a shadow fell
Return to you, you came down and a shadow fell
I'm with you, I'm with you
Sleep now, child, what became
Of those monsters screaming in our minds?
Oh, fade it out, forever gone
Tumbling, rounding, circles in the ground
Oh, take my hand, we'll take a ride
To the land of dream beyond the prairie, oh
Child, I'm with you, all of the time
When a shadow falls, I'm with you
When you're down, where the darkness crawls
I'm with you, you came down and a shadow fell
Return to you, you came down and a shadow fell
I'm with you, I'm with you
