Gifts From God

Children At Heart

Are we all children at heart,
Are we all children at heart,
Even these so-called mature adults?

Are we children at heart
in the sense that we need a firm hand?

Are we children at heart
in the sense that we need a loving shoulder,
a loving touch, a loving lip?

Are we children at heart
in the sense that we need one another?

Are we children at heart
in the sense that we need one another?

Are we children at heart
in the sense that we're at the mercy
of a higher vision than ourselves?

Are we children at heart,
Are we children at heart,
Even these so-called mature adults?

Children at heart, that's what we are ---
Children at heart, even those who've
reached full maturity.
