Child, Child

by Anne Sofie Von Otter

Lyrics
Child, child, love while you can
The voice and the eyes and the soul of a man
Never fear, though it can break your heart
Out of the wound new joy will start

Only love, proudly and gladly and well
Though love be heaven or love be hell

Child, child, love while you may
For life is as short as a happy day
Never fear the thing you fear
Only by love is life made real

Love, for the ten sins are seven
Only through love will you enter heaven
