She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
When everything was as the blue bright sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
But if I stared too long, I'd probably break down and cry
Oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine

Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by
And she's got eyes of the bluest sky
As if they thought of rain
I hate into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
Oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sweet child o' mine
