She heard a voice from so far away
It told her her mother had gone away In the next room down the corridor Her baby started to cry Her whole life had just fell apart There was nothing then the hurting started In her heavy head on her knees she prayed could somebody help her Clementine It was never meant to be this way It was never meant to be this way Clementine It was never meant to be this way it was never meant to be this way If only I'd told you yesterday Got in her car and she sped away Into the floodlit street down by your way As the sun rose by the morning dew Well she returned in such a state Her baby knew not what was going on But it could tell from her tears that something was wrong with mum Desperation let out its final scream But our clementine didn't hear a damn thing [REPEAT CHORUS] Into the mirror she stared at herself Asked is that my life is that what I'm here for Her reflection chose not to respond As she froze to the spot like a cold hard statue And bathed in her tears she said her time was through |

Sleep peacefully now my child
I hope that you go away To a place where your dreams can play Wipe all the tears from your eyes There is a sky of blue This is your time of truth Like a bird high on the wind May you fly away Like a snowfall in the spring may you cares melt away CHILD innocent child our hope lies inside your starry eyes my innocent child Hero now that you are free You have no need to fear so go out and find your smile Like a candle in the stream May you float away Like a feather on the breeze May you blow away CHILD innocent child our hope lies inside your starry eyes my innocent child Like a candle Like a snowfall Like a feather like a bird fly away Like a candle like a snowfall like a feather like a bird fly away Sleep peacefully now my child I hope that you go away to a place where you dreams can play |

Taking a walk
Through the valley of a roadside Taking a walk through the valley of a roadside on a sunny afternoon Smoking a smoke Through the streets of a poppy field Smoking a smoke through the streets of a poppy field on a sunny afternoon I'm travelling down a man made avenue Theres a stop sign this time I'm going through Are you with me on my journey Are you with me in the search for the sunshine On a sunny afternoon Now I'm driving in my car Down the path of a hillside On a sunny afternoon Holding your hand Down a lane made for lovers on a sunny afternoon I'm travelling down a man made avenue Theres a stop sign this time I'm going through [REPEAT CHORUS] I'm travelling down a man made avenue Theres a stop sign this time I'm going through |

Looking at me through the eye of a needle
is a scary thing to do I feel a mole hill lies in front of me to climb Is your primary purpose in life to scrutinize every move I make cos if it is I think your wasting precious time Well I know that I have got a job to do And I know, that my job is pleasing you, but I am what I am The way god made me I am what I am Don't try and change me Well I know I have my weaknessess as you point them out to me but our confont the spots of doubt as they arise Never born to be a leader but I'll take my role with pride cos a soldier with his honours lies inside Well I know that I have got a job to do As you say, that my job revolves around you I am what I am The way god made me I am what I am Don't try and change me Well I know that I have got a job to do But my life, wasn't made...for you I am what I am The way god made me I am what I am Don't try and change me I am what I am The way god made me |
