Like a Child Songtext
von Alexa Rose

I used to think I was your perfect lady
I used to think you were a good good man
I used to wonder if I′d have your baby
Stealing flowers from the promised land
I used to think that love was always kind
I used to think it was a steady flow
I used to think I was ahead of my time
But I was swimming with the undertow
But like a stallion at the starting line
Like a child with a lesson to learn
It's got me looking to the great design
Asking when it′s gonna be my turn
All of these dreams that I've been drinking up
I've got that old uneasy feeling again
Sipping honey from a poison cup But like the ringing of a Sunday choir
Like a child with a lesson to learn
It′s burning in me like a July fire
Someday it′s gonna be my turn
Maybe I'll find it in the canyonlands
Or in the backyard of the grocery store
I don′t care if you're gonna cut me open
Long as you remind me what I′m bleeding for
There's someone out there with a book of matches
And I′m a child with a finger to burn
And when we're finished sweeping up these ashes
Someday it's gonna be our turn
Someday it′s gonna be our turn
Uh huh, someday it′s gonna be our turn
