Child Of Mine lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Child Of Mine lyrics Child of mine, you are the wildest wind and the dearest dream  I will ever know.  Love s lasting light shines out from deep within this father s heart  As I watch you grow.  Child of mine, you are the break of dawn and the brightest star  I will ever know  Love s lasting light comes shining on and on from this mother s heart  As I watch you grow  Chorus  There is a road, and that road is all your own  But we are here, you need not walk alone.  To face, not fear each coming new unknown  Is the way to lift your wings  Child of mine, you are the sweetest song and the greatest gift  I will ever know.  Child of mine, where spirits fly above there is but one  that belongs to you.  So let it grow and it will thrive on love  For it is love that sees us through  You have the hands that will open up the doors  You have the hopes this world is waiting for  You are my own, but you are so much more  You are tomorrow on the wing,  Child of mine.  Bill Staines, 1992 Mineral River Music song lyrics
