Lyrics

Heaven's Child - Paul Wintermore

Came down from heaven on a New Year's morn
To find him a cradle of a world so torn
Gave me his hand said, we'll ride the storm
The prettiest babe that was ever born

From the cradle out onto the tightrope wire
He'll learn the songs of a different choir
Will he make me a jewel or make me a liar
You're a heaven’s child you're gonna fly higher

I'll build you a castle, I'll build you a wall
If they come for you child, we'll cheat 'em all
You're mine for your life, till the trees grow tall
You're a heaven's child, you're never gonna fall

He rides the storm but he’s bound to change
Got a heart of gold but ain’t it strange
Sometimes his eyes, they can’t help rainin’
Never seen a child that was built for the pain

Time will tell the race he ran
You won't find his name in the bloody sand
He won't be the one with the killin' plan
A heaven's child can' kill like a man

I'll build you a castle, I'll build you a wall
If they come for you child, we'll cheat 'em all
you're mine for your life, till the trees grow tall
you're a heaven's child, you're never gonna fall

Came down from heaven on a New Year's morn
gave me smile, then he gave me a warning
said it's hard to keep a smile in a world so torn
but I'm a heaven's child and we'll ride the storm
but I'm a heaven's child and we'll ride the storm
but I'm a heaven's child and we'll ride the storm
