[Intro]
Whoa, yeah
[Chorus 1]
With a child's heart
Go face the worries of the day
With a child's heart
Turn each problem into play
[Verse 1]
No need to worry
No need to fear
Just being alive
Makes it all so very clear
[Chorus 2]
That's with a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
You've got no reason to frown
[Verse 3]
Love is it's welcome
As a sunny, sunny day
No grownup thoughts
To lead our hearts astray
[Bridge]
Take life easy, easy, so easy
Like a child so gay and carefree
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 4]
Love is it's welcome
As a sunny, sunny day
The whole world smiles with you, ha
As you go your own merry way
[Chorus 2]
'Cause with a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
We've got no reason to frown
Whoa, yeah
[Chorus 1]
With a child's heart
Go face the worries of the day
With a child's heart
Turn each problem into play
[Verse 1]
No need to worry
No need to fear
Just being alive
Makes it all so very clear
[Chorus 2]
That's with a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
You've got no reason to frown
[Verse 3]
Love is it's welcome
As a sunny, sunny day
No grownup thoughts
To lead our hearts astray
[Bridge]
Take life easy, easy, so easy
Like a child so gay and carefree
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 4]
Love is it's welcome
As a sunny, sunny day
The whole world smiles with you, ha
As you go your own merry way
[Chorus 2]
'Cause with a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
We've got no reason to frown
