WOKE UP LIKE A CHILD
It was a beautiful morning
I got out with the sun
Put on a little Bob Dylan
Talking one to one
But I was tired of watching for signals
With just a ghost of a chance
I fought the cold man’s wars
And I danced the combat dance
But I woke up like a child
I woke up like a child
And I don’t let those nightmares bring me down
They don’t bring me down
And I dreamed we never grow up
Keep scratching hearts on the walls
And all the hearts that were touching
They hardly beat at all
But I woke up like a child
I woke up like a child
And I don’t let those nightmares bring me down
They don’t bring me down
It was a beautiful morning
I got out with the sun
Put on a little Bob Dylan
Watch the children run
There’s no protest singers
There’s no protest songs
Just the howling of the night hounds
When they don’t get along
There’s no protest singers
There’s no protest songs
Just the howling of the night hounds
When they don’t get along
But I woke up like a child
I woke up like a child
And I don’t let those nightmares bring me down
They don’t bring me down
