A paper rainbow hangs in her room
dolls on the night stand a bride and a groom
outside her window is a pale colored moon
Heaven help the child
Tiny fingers with nails painted red
clutching her blanket pulled over her head
praying no monsters are under her bed
Heaven help the child
She needs someone to hold her everyday
somebody who will kiss her tears away
She needs someone to put the pieces back again when her little heart is broken.
Chalk colored sidewalks and castles of sand
wells full of wishes and story book plans
Someday they'll be changes she won't understand
Heaven help the child
She needs someone to hold her every day
someone to take her hand and lead the way
She needs someone to put the pieces back again when her little heart is broken
A paper rainbow hands in her room
dolls on the night stand a bride and a groom
one small angel will be growing up soon
Heaven help the child
Heaven help the child
Heaven help the child
