Lyrics Child in Me - Kathie Lee Gifford

Child in Me

I’d like to lose all time again
And look for trees to climb again
Recite a little rhyme again
And dream a reckless dream
For someone I’ve exiled in me
Awoke today
And smiled in me
I need to find the child in me again
Oh, I know that we all grow older
Grow sadder
Grow wiser
Grow colder
Grow up
So I look for myself
Leaving no stone unturned
Oh, I need to recapture the truths I’ve unlearned
The honesty
The open face
The simple faith and easy grace
I didn’t see the time erase
The child I used to be
I’ll have to wait a while and see
She may come back in style in me
I need to find the child in me again
La, la, la
La, la, la
Oh, I know that we all grow older
Grow sadder
Grow wiser
Grow colder
Grow up
So I look for myself
Leaving no stone unturned
Oh, I need to recapture the truths I’ve unlearned
To find myself a child again
To meet the morning mild again
To run headlong and wild again
Into a dawning dream
It seems like such a precious thing
A peace beyond imagining
But winter will give way to spring again
It seems like such a precious thing
A peace beyond imagining
But she’ll awake and smile in me
And she’ll need to be reconciled in me
I need to find the child in me again
I need to find the child in me again
