Where will you hide I'll count to ten, I promise I'll close my eyes You can't outrun me although, I hope you might Someday into the light, child of the meadow Oh, when you run I see the finest magic Earth ever spun I face the brightness of what you will become The moon to the sun Child of the meadow...

But there's a fork in the road You'll go your own way someday, that much I know Can't make the child stay with a spoonful of gold Still, you empty the bowl Child of the meadow... You... you... you... you... Are the moon on fire When you run into my arms I get a little bit lighter I could never do you harm When it's all spilling over It would never be too much As I watch you grow older Forever wouldn't be enough Me in the lake You in the meadow Me in the lake You in the meadow... Day's nearly done You go catch the sun My child of the meadow Day's nearly done You go catch the sun My child of the meadow...
