Nothing But a Child

Counting Crows


Glance upon me walking on the ocean 
Sun upon me walking on a wave 
You can slide like the lord above.. a team in motion 
But for everyone you do, 
There's always one or two like me 
you can't save 
Sail on Maria, burn her to the ground 
Slide your hand between her tears until she comes 
Wake up her mother, tell her you're sorry now 
All gods children walk before they run 
Everything is beautiful in dream land 
Everything is much, much better when we're gone 
Think I'm going to write myself a letter 
Something you can keep with you forever 
Because everybody gets to be perfect when they're gone 
Nothing but a child baby 
Nothing but a child baby 
Nothing but a child baby... 
In you're arms, I am Nothing but a child baby 
Nothing but a child baby 
Nothing but a child baby
