Lyrics She Says To Me

Such a little soul, but very old, she smiles up at me
And I realise she's very wise, it's easy to see
She says to me, "The world will survive"

So, I live and learn that my concern for all that I hear
Isn't worth all the pain it causes year after year
She says to me, "Take it day by day"
"And just let things be" she says to me

We are going along, hiding our sorrow
Not singing a song, no thought for tomorrow
Not saying a word
Keeping our thoughts to ourselves
Ourselves

She is only just a little child, but she knows more than people care to realise
And she shows more understanding than me
Oh, every time I look into her eyes I see all the promise of the paradise to be
So, I listen to what she says to me

We are going along, hiding our sorrow
Not singing a song, no thought for tomorrow
Not saying a word
Keeping it all to ourselves

She says to me, "Take it day by day"
"We all will learn" she says to me
"If you let things be" she says to me
