Look into the eyes of tomorrow
And see yesterday’s child
Young and exuberant
Full of innocence
Looking in awe
At all of us
What shall we tell him?
When his expectations fail?
When tomorrow brings disappointment
And reality dawns too clear?
When pedal stools crumble
And hero’s fall?
Yesterday’s child becomes
Tomorrow’s man
Knowledge in his eyes
Wisdom in his heart
Guiding the makers of the future
His own, yesterday’s child
