I Am a Child: Buffalo Springfield
(Neil Young)

I am a child, I last a while

You can't conceive of the pleasure in my smile

You hold my hand, rough up my hair

It's lots of fun to have you there

I gave to you, now, you give to me

I'd like to know what you've leaned

The sky is blue and so is the sea

What is the color, when black is burned?

What is the color?

You are a man, you understand

You pick me up and you lay me down again

You make the rules, you say what's fair

It's lots of fun to have you there

I gave to you, now, you give to me

I'd like to know what you've learned

The sky is blue and so is the sea

What is the color, when black is burned?

What is the color?

I am a child, I'll last a while

You can't conceive of the pleasure in my smile
