Don't Let Them Take The Child Away

Precious wandering eyes,
No bedtime stories, just cloudy skies,
Darkness, alone at night,
can’t have their dreams, must be brave and fight
And it’s raining all night,
don’t fear the lightning,
it’s a shame that soldiers don’t cry,
The child is not as a child
don’t let them take the child
away, (gotta get away)
it’s in your heart, it’s there to stay,
you’ve got to try to get away,
(gotta get away, get away)
They’ll steal your soul and walk away,
I said no, no, no, no, no,
don’t let them take the child away
Danger passes by,
They move ahead with all their pride,
Hey there, it’s alright,
you’ve got to believe there’s a better life
And it’s raining all night,
don’t fear the lightning,
it’s a shame that soldiers don’t cry,
The child is not as a child
don’t let them take the child
away, (gotta get away)
it’s in your heart, it’s there to stay,
you’ve got to try to get away,
(gotta get away, get away)
They’ll steal your soul and walk away,
I said no, no, no, no, no,
don’t let them take the child away
I said don’t, don’t,
don’t let them take the child away,
I said don’t, don’t,
don’t let them take the child away,
Gotta get away, get away
They’ll never leave you alone,
Got to get away, get away, get away,
They’ll never leave you alone,
Got to get away, get away, get away
Don’t let them take the child
away, (gotta get away)
it’s in your heart, it’s there to stay,
you’ve got to try to get away,
(gotta get away, get away)
They’ll steal your soul and walk away
I said no, no,
don’t let them take the child away,
(gotta get away, get away)
I said don’t, don’t,
don’t let them take the child away,
(gotta get away, get away)
