Jesus To a Child

Kindness in your eyes
I guess you heard me cry
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child

I'm blessed I know
Heaven sent and heaven stole
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child

And what have I learned from all this pain
I thought I never feel the same
About anyone or anything again

But now I know
When you find a love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights

When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight

Sadness in my eyes
No one guessed or no one tried
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child

Loveless and cold
With your last breath you saved my soul
You smiled at me like Jesus to a child

And what have I learned from all these tears
I've waited for you all those years
Then just when it began he took your love away

But I still say
When you find a love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights

When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there's no hope in sight

So the words you could not say
I'll sing them for you

And the love we would have made
I'll make it for two

For every single memory
Has become a part of me

You will always be my love

Well I've been loved
So I know just what love is
And the lover that I kissed
Is always by my side

Oh, the lover I still miss
Was Jesus to a child
