And when you are aware, your body glows
Do they ever understand the light in your eyes?
Can't you see, child of light
A child of light, child of light
You're a child of light
And you wear the thorn, anymore than man
And you wear the thorn, anymore than man
You're a child of light
You're a child of light
As you grow old and wiser, you keep more to yourself
And you wear the thorn, anymore than man
Your mother felt something and your father wasn't there
Keep a look to here, as you're walking through the night
You're a child of light
They're hoping you might be the Holy Ghost
You were born into a world that lives in darkness
Will they ever understand the light in your eyes?
You were born into a world that lives in darkness
Being born into a world that lives in darkness
Shame, she never realized the light in your eyes
You're a child of light
But she raised you best she could for a poor man's son
You're a child of light
