Songtexte My Special Child - 2009 Remastered Version - Sinead O'Connor

Think about my little girl
Her yellow skin and her dark curls
And how her father's heart was frozen

I spoke to her and I said
"You won't regret
The mother you have chosen"

I lied, where's she tonight?

I've left him, now we're apart
And I think about his cruel heart
And how his lies have left mine broken

To think that I spoke to him then I said
"She won't regret
The father she has chosen"

I lied, where's he tonight?

You were precious to me
After all, I called you into being
I wanted you to know
Yes, you were precious to me

She has chosen

And I miss my little boy
I strayed away, so far away
And I need him tonight

To feel his hands around my face
His loving eyes, his happy face
Would be so right

Once I sat in my husband's car
Him in my arms, woke up and saw me crying
My heart wouldn't work

And this he did, my special child
He touched my face with his hand and smiled
Oh boy, everything's alright

Don't cry, everything's alright
Don't cry, Jakes's here tonight
Don't hide, Jake's here alive
