My Special Child Lyrics - Singles - Oconnor Sinead

Think about my little girl 

Her yellow skin and her dark curl 

And how her father's heart was frozen 

I spoke to her and I said: 

"You won't regret the mother you have chosen" 

I lied. Where's she tonight? 

I left him now we're apart 

And I think about his cruel heart 

And how his lies have left mine broken 

To think that I spoke to him then I said: 

"She won't regret the father she has chosen" 

I lied. Where's he tonight? 

You were precious to me 

After all I called you into being 

I wanted you to know that 

Yes, you were precious to me 

And I miss my little boy 

I strayed away, so far away 

And I need him tonight 

To feel his hands around my face 

His loving eyes 

His happy face 

Would be so right 

Once I sat in my husbands car 

Him in my arms, woke up and saw me crying 

My heart wouldn't work 

And this he did my special child 

He touched my face with his hand and smiled 

Oh boy, everything's all right 

Don't cry, everything's all right 

Don't cry, Jakes's here tonight 

Don't hide, Jake's here alive
