It's the arcing of a life
That I've not seen till this day?
In life she should be warned
Who is this child?
Her kind is everywhere
What does she mean to me?
Who is this child
If we should wait a while
And you feel that it's out there
There is no way in life
Who dares to fall asleep
At every grave
I close my eyes
There are no guarantees
And still her face I see
Soon to arrive
She is but one
A way that leads from my destruction as I say
Who is this child?
That each child can be saved
There will be other lives
And it's hanging in the air
Can't you see there's no way I should care?
For this child being born
It's the arcing of a life
What does she mean to me?
Though I try to close my eyes
Just to being kind?
And it's hanging in the air
I need a moment now
To be involved with this
For every child that life can gather
Each the same as any other
And there are many more
I learned the trick is
And you see it in the night
And there are many more
What is this life?
I have to clear my mind
Is there a limit Lord
She means nothing to me
Could this one life really matter?
Her kind is everywhere
I'm sure she'll go away
Should I be looking with regret
And pretend that I don't know
She is but one
I'm not responsible
There has to be another way for me
There will be other lives
I close my eyes
Can you feel that it's out there?
That we just avoid her eyes
Surely some will survive
Soon to arrive
Would surely not be wise
Surely some will survive
And pretend that I don't know
Outside my door?
And the question
In my heart I just can't let it go
What she means to
And still her face I see
In any kind of way
What is this life?
For in the final word
A way that leads from this insanity
She is but one
In my heart I just can't let it
Though I try to close my eyes
I'm not responsible
Can you see it in the night?
She is but one
Can't you see there's no way I should care?
