I Thought I Was A Child Lyrics - Jackson Browne

It's such a clever innocence with which you do your sorcery 

As if somehow the years just bow and let that young girl go free 

I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled 

I thought I knew where I was going until I heard your laughter flowing 

And came upon the wisdom in your eyes 

Surprise-- 

 

I've spent my whole life running 'round 

Chasing songs from town to town 

Thinking I'd be free so long as I never let love slow me down 

So lonely and so wild until you turned and smiled 

By now I should have long been gone 

But here I am still looking on 

As if I didn't know which way to run

It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me 

As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be 

I thought I was a child until you turned and smiled 

I thought that I was free but I'm just one more prisoner of time 

Alone within the boundaries of my mind 

I thought I was a child
