If I could write the wrongs that made you cry
would you promise not to say goodbye
'Cause I'm holding on with a love so strong
and I can't take the day without you by my side

Girl if I could change, if I could change your mind
Baby you could help me wipe these tears from my eyes

Chorus:
Girl don't stop the sun from shining down on me
'Cause I can't face another day without your smile
And if you take away the loving arms that surround me
Then I might break down and cry just like a child

Girl I can't belong and I won't be free
If I fail to bring your lovin' back to me
So I'm pressing on, I hope you understand
That there's a broken heart that lies within your hands

So if I could change (so if I could change)

And it won't hurt your pride (and it won't hurt your pride)
Baby you can help me stop these tears from my cries

Chorus

Like a child, just like a child
With the spirits runnin' free
She showed me why, oh she did
Like a child (oh baby), just like a child
Think of what our love could be
If our hearts could set us free
Like a child

Chorus (3X)
