For The Children Lyrics - Singles - Timothy B. Schmit

(t. b. schmit/b. gaitsch) 

Once upon a time I - I could bathe in the sun 

By the ocean so blue 

I could smell the rainfall 

And watch the pure water run 

The taste it was true 

I used to be able to see so far away 

I had nothing to fear 

And now it's so hard 

To feel the clear light of day 

The world is so insincere

We must all go into our hearts 

Then we will know just how to start 

We've got to give all - all we can possibly give 

For the children to live 

When I was a young boy I could play by the street 

And laugh with my friends 

We were never scared of 

Anyone we might meet 

We never thought it could end 

We must all go into our hearts 

Then we will know just how to start 

We've got to give all - all we can possibly give 

For the children to live 

As I go on I have a strong feeling of sorrow 

I've got to know our love will grow with hope for tomorrow
