Children
Barry & Eileen Lyrics

My body's made a slave of me
I feel trapped by my physical limitations and struggles.

My whole life's been just one little bit of fantasy
I haven't experienced much of reality, I tend to live in my own head and imagination.

Our father's still a mystery
We don't understand our relationship with our father (possibly referring to God).

We've created all this poverty
We're responsible for our own struggles and lack, but we don't know how to change it.

Still I find richness loving you
Despite our struggles, I feel fulfilled and content when I'm with you.

A fullest cup of love with you
Our love is deep and full and brings us joy.

My minds a game of endless schemes
My thoughts are constantly racing and coming up with plans and ideas.

A crystal fog my whole grip upon reality
Despite all of my ideas and plans, I struggle to understand and connect with the real world.

I must be a sailor man
I feel lost and adrift, unsure of where I'm going or what I'm doing.

Adrift upon an endless scam Oh yeah
I feel like life is one big con and I'm constantly being taken advantage of.

Still I take shelter mam with you
Despite all of my struggles, being with you brings me comfort and safety.

A peaceful stretch of sand with you
Our relationship is a tranquil and calming place in the midst of chaos.

A star to wish upon on a cold and cloudy day
Even in the darkest of times, we have hope and something to look forward to.

Are you the only one that hears just what I say Oh yeah
Do you truly understand me, or am I alone in my struggles and thoughts?

As you embrace my life I feel I need to say
When I'm with you, I feel grateful and like I need to express my appreciation.

Thank you lord for everything
Thank you God for all that we have, including each other.

This love you send she sees my need
Our love feels like a gift from God and satisfies our deepest longings.

Yes we're still children of the lord
Our faith is still important to us and shapes our worldview.

And this fear of life's not needed anymore
We don't need to be afraid of life or the future because we have each other and our faith.

Two hearts are warm and tender thing
Our love is gentle and kind, and makes us feel cozy and comfortable.

Is this within my grasp to change my reality
Can we actually change the course of our lives and improve our circumstances?

To know love that you'll be there
To have the assurance and security of your love is invaluable to me.

To know we need not have a care oh yeah
We can trust in each other and in God to take care of us and our needs.

I hear the music loving you
Being with you is like being immersed in beautiful music that soothes and uplifts me.

You've got that special song in you
You have a unique and beautiful presence and personality that brings joy into my life.
