Laura Nyro - Don't Hurt Child Lyrics

Don't hurt, child
I know you do
I was young and wild once too
Let the summer storm
Clear the sky
When you cry

Don't hurt, child
You need to find your way
In the madness of the day
And if it don't break you
It will be
Your song

May the love that we know
Keep us strong
Don't hurt, child

Baby comes into the world
In a veil of divine love
Gets caught up in thunder and rain
What were you dreamin' of?
Don't

Don't hurt, child
I took my stand
But the key is in your hand
Heal your wild wing
And fly

May the love that you know
Get you by
Don't hurt
My baby child
