Conversation with the child who once believed in you

How does one explain to him, what it is you do?

He says, Daddy, Daddy, please tell me it's not true

What all the people are saying, saying about you There comes a time when one must face the life that you have led

That is a hard thing to do when lies is all that has been said

And the blameless eyes of an innocent youth

Is begging for you to tell the truth

It's such a hard way to learn, hard way to learn

Gotta learn now This moment of truth will hurt for life

Don't need to tell you that ain't right

Come now, little boy don't you cry

'Cause the child in you is still alive Conversation with the child who once believed in you

How does one explain to him, what it is you do?

He says, Daddy, Daddy, please tell me it's not true

What all the people are saying, saying about you There comes a time in this child's life, when the boy becomes a man

So many things from his past he now can understand

Like all the times when dad would leave and be gone for so long

And he thought everything was all right

(He thought everything was all right)

Boy, you gotta learn now This moment of truth will hurt for life

Don't need to tell you that ain't right

So, come now little boy, don't you cry

'Cause the child in you is still alive This moment of truth will hurt for life

(This moment of truth will hurt for life)

Don't need to tell you that ain't right

(Don't need to tell you that ain't right)

Come now, little boy don't you cry

(Come now, little boy don't you cry)

'Cause the child in you is still alive

('Cause the child in you is still alive, the child in you is still alive) Such a hard way to learn, such a hard way to learn

Such a hard way to learn, such a hard way to learn
