Through the eyes of a child, the whole world is waiting there
In the core of his soul, happiness is everywhere

Through the eyes of a child, a blade of grass is simply green
In his heart, warm and tender, time is endless — unforseen

Through the eyes of a child, his friendly spirit sees no wrong
In his laughter and his smile, there is joy in every song

Through the eyes of a child — running, jumping, wild and free
In his mind, the world's a playground - there are no boundaries

Through the eyes of a child, a grownup's hand is always strong
In his senses he can feel life's breath in morning's sun

Through the eyes of a child, mankind is all the same
In his eyes he cannot see the differences we make

Through the eyes of a child, rivers flow like an ocean
In his small hands, he holds, the key to resolution

For you see —
through the eyes of a child —
wars are obsolete
time is always ageless
and the world revolves in peace...

"...we could learn a lot from a child."
