New morning, it's another day
The world is waking
Sad eyes frozen in fear
Lost souls, lost children
And we turn the T.V. on
In the warmth of our home
Drive our air conditioned 3 litre sports
While you're alone
Child of the dark summer skies
I hear you calling
Child of the dark summer skies
Your day is dawning
Child of the dark skies
The wind blows, it cuts like ice
The rain keeps falling
No mothers' arms to hold you tight
No hand to feed you
Our kids sleep soundly in their beds
Safe from the storm
We watch them grow, we watch them run free
While you're laone
Child of the dark summer skies
I hear you calling
Child of the dark summer skies
Your day is dawning
Child of the dark skies
What a price to pay for just being born
When there's so much love to go round and around
It makes no sense who has a right to it all
In the end
Child of the dark summer skies
I hear you calling
Child of the dark summer skies
Your day is dawning
Child of the dark skies
