Story behind the song
Was written after an evening at the old Sword and Stone Coffeehouse on Charles Street in Boston
Lyrics
Little Child
You are so timid and so mild
Your eyes so sad
They show the hard times that You’ve had
And that shy smile
You are just looking for a friend
For a while
All alone
You just sit there all alone
The candle glow
Reflects the faces you don’t know
They’re all around
So you just stare down at the ground
They’ll never know how you feel
Chorus:
We are people who don’t know the meaning
Of our own lives
We are wanderers trying to find our way
Through all this darkness
And we’re all alone
You know sometimes
I can feel it in my heart
Another’s pain
I can understand the words of his refrain
He’s just a soul that has been lost out in the rain
Waiting for the end and looking for a friend
Chorus:
