Heaven Help The Child
Written by Glen Burtnik
Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik
A paper rainbow hangs in the room,
Dolls on the nightstand, a bride and a groom,
Outside the window dogs Howell at the moon,
Heaven help the child
Ting fingers, nails painted red,
Clutching a blanket, pulled over her head,
Praying no monsters are under the bed,
Heaven help the child
She Needs someone to wake her everyday,
Someone to hold her hand and lead the way,
She needs someone to put the pieces back again,
When her little heart is broken
Chalked colored sidewalks and castles of sand,
Wells full of wishes and a story of plans,
Someday they'll be changes she won't understand,
Heaven help the child
She needs someone to hold her everyday,
Someone to kiss her tears away,
She needs someone to put the pieces back again,
When her little heart is broken
A paper rainbow hangs in the room,
Two dolls on the nightstand, a bride and a groom,
One little angle will be growing up soon,
Heaven help the child,
Heaven help the child
