A thousand worlds away
A child is crying for me.
Night is entwined with day,
The child holds my eternal key.
The child can see I am crying,
But does not understand why I am trying
To grasp the key I have lost.
The child has it and can only give at a cost.

I run down and up flights of stairs,
Can the child hear my frantic prayers?
Nothing is impossible if I have that key,
The one designed to someday be given to me.
But I don't know when or where I will receive!
So I run up and down trying to retrieve
The one thing I cannot grasp,
The one thing that child constantly will clasp.

A thousand worlds away
A child is crying for me.
Night is entwined with day,
The child holds my eternal key.
The child can see I am crying,
But does not understand why I am trying
To grasp the key I have lost.
The child has it and can only give at a cost.

The child is sitting in a garden.
That lost soul can only harden
As it holds my key for my life.
I bring that poor thing only strife.
That child feels my pain and tears,
That child feels my strain and fears.
But I cannot lighten the load for the soul
Because I first must find that goal.
Maybe someday I'll stop running
Maybe I'll make my heart stop numbing.
But "maybe" is just a dream.
No matter how real it may seem,
It is something that probably won't be.
Not for the child, not for me.

A thousand worlds away
A child is crying for me.
Night is entwined with day,
The child holds my eternal key.
The child can see I am crying,
But does not understand why I am trying
To grasp the key I have lost.
The child has it and can only give at a cost.

But, please child, don't ask why.
I'm going to help you, I promise I'll try.
Please don't cry for me.
Someday soon I'll save you from that key...
On angel's wings I'll fly,
To retrieve you and the key, but don't ask why.
To grasp the key I have lost.
The child has it and can only give at a cost.

I wrote this while listening to several songs, don't remember off the top of my head. I hope you like it. Please leave a comment!
