As children we want to be loved Children all know how to give love It's stripped away, little more day by day And I lose myself in this big world A piece of myself every day I give so freely It's hard to even notice a change Oh, come on, take me back Take me back to then, let me see love again We all hurt others for nothing I can't find a reason at all but hate is raging And war comes so easy to men I'm so tired of the darkness It's hard to kindle heat for the fire But I know there is hope for the hopeless Oh, come on, take me back Take me back to then, let me see love again
