I have climbed the highest mountain 
and sailed the ocean wide 
But nothing could fill my heart so complete
But a smile from a child of thine.


I have seen my days of sadness
I have dealt with selfish pride
But nothing will ever turn my head as quickly 
Like a cry from a child of thine.

Our lives are set on a time scale 
Our clock will tick away 
But nothing could ever clear my mind so quickly 
As a child's gentle touch that says "It will be okay."
From a child of thine.

This life is filled with obstacles 
That will make us want to turn and hide 
But the world will always turn on time 
Though the eyes of a child of thine.
