Lyrics:

Chorus
Hey child, wash away your tears
Hang on 'til tomorrow comes
'Cause it will soon be here
Hey child, don't give up today
Gotta be some good times baby
Not too far away

Child, love don't come easily
And child, don't be afraid to feel
'Cause the time's gonna come
(Time's gonna come)
When you're gonna go
(You're gonna go)
And my only advice
Is to live your life your own way
I'm here for you
'Til my dying day

Chorus

Child, don't be a fool for love
'Cause child, it will come soon enough
Like a mind needs a dream
(Mind needs a dream)
And a song needs a theme
(Song needs a theme)
Every heart needs a home
To express just how it feels
I'm there for you
'Til my dying day

Chorus

Yeah come on yeah
Hey child hey now

Hey child
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Wash away your tears
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Hang on till tomorrow comes
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
'Cause it will soon be here
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Hey child
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Don't give up today
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Gotta be some good times baby
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Not too far away

Hey child now
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Wash away your tears
Please wash away your tears, yeah
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Hang on till tomorrow comes
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
'Cause it will be here soon
(Hey child, sweet child of mine)
Hey hey hey hey child
