Beautiful Child

You learn soon enough

If you don't know by now

When you're talking to my face

I'm not really here

I'm already down the road with my expectations

Wrestling with regret

Somewhere back there

Yes, I am baby

When you cross that line

And you lose yourself

There may be no turning back

Cause illusion fades

And what you're looking for

May be no more than that

Beautiful child

Someday you'll give anything

To live in a moment

Live with what you've got

You can search this world over

And still be a prisoner in a cage

Once you've forgotten what it feels like

You'll find it on the inside

Not so much by virtue

That we come to know the truth

Still we must be careful not to let it slip away

Feel free to take what you need from me

Learn from my mistakes

From the things

We stand to lose

Once we turn our backs

Of the truth

Don't be afraid

'Cause it ain't no more than that

Beautiful child

Someday you'll give anything

To live in a moment

Live with what you've got

You can search this world over

And still be a prisoner in a cage

Once you've forgotten what it feels like

You'll find it on the inside

Never let it go, no no

Beautiful child

Someday you'll give anything

To live in a moment

Grateful for what you've got

You can search this world over

And still be a prisoner in a cage

Once you've forgotten what it feels like

You'll find it on the inside

You'll find it on the inside

Beautiful child

Beautiful child

You'll find it on the inside
