Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
When everything was as bright as the bluest sky
Now and then when I see her face
It takes me away to that special place
But if I stared too long I'd probably break down and cry
[Verse 2]
Oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, sweet child o' mine
[Verse 3]
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain
To quietly pass me by
And she's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
[Verse 4]
Oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, sweet child o' mine
