It's your time
And it’s your place
And I hope you'll not let either go to waste
Try to move, try to matter
Try to hold your head up high above the chatter

Oh, sweet children
I can't make it go away I know
Oh, sweet children
I can only offer you my love

In the wounds
That you discover
For the ones you hide you find inside your lover
Forgive the lost who always fake it
And the lonely ones who try but never make it

Oh, sweet children
I can’t make it go away I know
Oh, sweet children
I can only offer you my love
Oh, sweet children
I can't make it go away I know
Oh, sweet children
I can only offer you my love
