Child Of Light Lyrics - Light Of Smiles - Gary Wright

You came out from nowhere like the first star at night 

And the world went on like it never saw you come 

Your mother felt something and your father wasn't there 

But she raised you best she could for a poor man's son 

Shame, she never realized the light in your eyes 

You're a child of light 

You were born into a world that lives in darkness 

You're a child of light 

And you wear the thorn, anymore than man 

As you grow old and wiser, you keep more to yourself 

And when you are aware, your body glows 

Keep a look to here, as you're walking through the night 

They're hoping you might be the Holy Ghost 

Do they ever understand the light in your eyes? 

You're a child of light 

You were born into a world that lives in darkness 

You're a child of light 

And you wear the thorn, anymore than man 

Will they ever understand the light in your eyes? 

You're a child of light 

Being born into a world that lives in darkness 

You're a child of light 

And you wear the thorn, anymore than man 

A child of light, child of light 

Can't you see, child of light 

That the world needs you tonight?
