Eagle-Eye Cherry - "Conversation" lyrics

CHORUS: Conversation with the child who once believed in you He says Daddy Daddy please tell me it's not true How does one explain to him what it is you do What all the people are saying....saying about you There comes a time when one must face the life that you have led And the blameless eyes of an innocent youth That is a hard thing to do when lies is all that has been said Is begging for you to tell the truth It's such a hard way to learn....hard way to learn This moment of truth will hurt for life Don't need to tell you that ain't right Come now little boy don't you cry 'Cause the child in you is still alive CHORUS Like all the times when Dad would leave and be gone for so long There comes a time in this child's life when the boy becomes a man So many things from his past he now can understand And he thought everything was all right This moment of truth will hurt for life And he thought everything was all right Don't need to tell you that ain't right 'Cause the child in you is still alive Come now little boy don't you cry This moment of truth will hurt for life Don't need to tell you that ain't right 'Cause the child in you is still alive Come now little boy don't you cry Such a hard way to learn......(REPEAT)
