Lyrics Child of the Earth - Gov't Mule
As
I
stand
here
searchin'
for
the
right
words
I
know
that
wisdom
comes
from
despair
Realize
it's
harder
to
find
your
own
voice
Than
to
follow
one
already
in
the
air
And
as
our
time
draws
nearer
I
wonder
just
when
we
stopped
being
young
I
know
my
greatest
deeds
will
go
unnoticed
And
our
treasures
were
here
all
along
Child
of
the
earth
hear
my
confession
Please
don't
tell
me
that
it's
overdue
And
from
the
four
corners
of
the
universe
I
will
make
my
way
to
you
A
gentle
touch
known
only
to
each
other
And
a
breath
that
comforts
like
the
rain
And
a
taste
no
other
will
ever
know
That
upon
my
tongue
shall
remain
Child
of
the
earth
heal
me
with
your
whisper
Come
and
hold
me
close
to
your
breast
Dress
my
wounds
with
your
innocence
I
am
weary
let
me
rest
Let
your
rain
wash
over
me
You
know
all
I
ever
hoped
to
be
Is
half
of
what
you
are
to
me
So
take
me
from
this
island
Lead
me
to
the
mountains
of
the
moon
As
long
as
you
lead
I
will
follow
And
the
end
of
time
will
be
too
soon
Child
of
the
earth
hear
my
confession
Please
don't
tell
me
that
it's
overdue
And
from
the
four
corners
of
the
universe
I
will
make
my
way
to
you
Child
of
the
earth
heal
me
with
your
whisper
Come
and
hold
me
close
to
your
breast
Dress
my
wounds
with
your
innocence
I
am
weary
let
me
rest
I
am
weary
I
am
weary
I
will
make
my
way
to
you
I
will
make
my
way
to
you
I
will
make
my
way
to
you
I
will
make
my
way
to
you
