lyrics

Child In Every Man
1979 - Syracuse, NY


She says life is too painful
That she got the bitter end
Her life was meant to be free
But she don’t understand

That he’s a child in a wheelchair
And he knows that he can’t walk
She can hardly move
And it’s hard for him to talk

And you were such a beautiful lady
When you were a man of grace
But the devil
Has scarred your face
Oh the devil
Has scarred your face

She says that people hurt her
So she crawls into him and hides
Whenever people abuse him
Cause he won’t stand up and fight

And he just sits in his chair all day
And dreams of a different time
While she lays deep inside his head
And cries into the night

And you were such a beautiful lady
When you were a man of grace
But the devil
Has scarred your face
Oh the devil
Has scarred your face

She says she should never have lived
Her agony’s too much to bear
Cause he has never given her
The freedom to appear

And they are just one person
trapped within two different minds
That paralyze his movement
And keep her from living life

But he is a child in a wheelchair
And he dreams everyday
Of standing next to that chair
And slowly walking away

And you were such a beautiful child
When you were a man of grace
But the devil
Has scarred your face
Oh the devil
Has scarred your face
