Child Of Steel

I’d give a lifetime, baby, to see you smile
If you could give your troubles over for just a little while
And look at the truth, it’s right here staring at you
Oh, angels bow when you walk by
And the rest of us here have always known why
'Cause the soul takes its blows and it does not reveal
And the heart opens slow and it takes time to heal
But you can let go, it’ll all turn to gold
My sweet child of steel
And I watch you walk through fire when clear water runs near
I watch your heart break open wide, a heart I hold so dear
But look at the truth, it could burn a hole right through you
Oh, angels bow and cover their eyes
And the rest of us here could just break down and cry
'Cause the soul takes its blows and it does not reveal
The heart opens slow and it takes time to heal
But you can let go, it’ll all turn to gold
My sweet child of steel
The soul takes its blows and it does not reveal
And the heart opens slow and it takes time to heal
But you can let go, it’ll all turn to gold
My sweet child of steel
