VERSE
F
I once walked with joy through life
Dm F
Saw the wonder in every sight
Bf F
All was bright, all was new
Dm F
A will to learn a will to do
Bf C
But I grew up to fast and saw too much
Dm F
And now the magic has lost its touch
Bf C
And I know an angel cried
Bf F
When the child in me died
VERSE
When I was young the world was strong
I saw the good in everyone
Places felt new and seemed to glow
But it's faded away to a place I can't go
I try to revive it and draw it near
And I know an angel cried
When the child in me died
VERSE
I feel such sadness at what I've lost
In the race to grow up I found the cost
I didn't savour the tastes I tried
They were lost in the rush to get down
Now it's too late and I'll never get it back
And I know an angel cried
When the child in me died
