Child Again Lyrics - Singles - Beth Nielsen Chapman

She's wheeled into the hallway 

Till the sun moves down the floor 

Little squares of daylight 

Like a hundred times before 

She's taken to the garden 

For the later afternoon 

Just before her dinner 

They return her to her room 

And inside her mind 

She is running 

She is running in the summer wind 

Inside her mind 

She is running in the summer wind 

Like a child again 

The family comes on Sunday 

And they hover for a while 

They fill her room with chatter 

And they form a line of smiles 

Children of her children 

Bringin' babies of their own 

Sometimes she remembers 

Then her Mama calls her home 

And inside her mind 

She is running 

She is running in the summer wind 

Inside her mind 

She is running in the summer wind 

Like a child again 

(Like a child again) 

Like a child again 

Raining, come out and play with me 

(It's raining, it's pouring, the old man is snoring) 

And bring your dollies three 

(Bumped his head on the edge of the bed) 

Climb up my apple tree 

(Never got up in the morning) 

Slide down my rain barrel 

(Rain, rain, go away) 

Into my cellar door 

(Come again another day) 

And we'll be jolly friends 

(Little Johnny wants to play) 

Forevermore 

(Some more) 

And inside her mind 

She is running 

She is running in the summer wind 

(Running) 

Like a child again 

(Running in the summer wind) 

Like a child again
