I Am A Child Lyrics - Singles - Harper Roy

I am a child 

I am a sanctuary 

Wild at my mother's knee 

Freedom has a piece of me 

Every night I run away 

Loose the nooses and drift astray 

Chasing dreams into outer space 

Trying to face 

The day 

Living life 

Against the law 

Forcing us all to endure 

Sneaking home to close the door 

Every night we run away 

Loose the nooses and drift astray 

Chasing dreams into outer space 

Trying to face 

The day 

Every night we do our best to lose it 

Skinning up and chasing better days 

Getting up and moving to the music 

O dance my darling lady fair 

My darling mayflower 

Show me just how much you dare 

Forget our daytime labour 

We're in the wind 

You feel us in the breeze 

Teaching leaves 

To grow the trees 

Smoothing 

Daytime memories 

And every night we run away 

Loose the nooses and drift astray 

Chasing dreams into outer space 

Trying to face 

The day
