I first started writing this song in my 20s... many years ago.
I never completed the lyrics song, until recently. Thanks to Phil Williams yet again, who helped me complete the song, and has made the song much better than I had ever imagined. He has also been really keen to develop his production skills too and develop his understanding of the whole process. I think he is doing an amazing job. This represents days/ hours of work for him, THANK YOU PHIL...I've also made a great friend along the way
As I returned to the song, I realized that I began writing the song about my two sons who are both on the Autistic spectrum. I must admit that I was in a dark place when I wrote this. They are in fact both inspiring in many ways and have made me a better person.....so Thankyou to both of them!
So these are the lyrics and link below. Thanks for finding the time to listen.

Chorus - slow
Sleep child sleep
And when you arise.
You'll find a world to loathe and despise.
Cry when you cry and all that you'll learn
Is to hold a torch,that you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
(Bridge)
Verse 1
Cry like a dog to be heard in this world
Sleep on the floor and you're given your chance
Why don't you know
Why don't you see
The moment that you're born
You're just a piece of history
Chorus
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
Verse 2
You walk down the streets, the neons and lights
The rations of hope meet the passions of night
Still don't you will know
Still don't you will see
The moment that you're born
You're just a piece of history
Chorus
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
Instrumental
Verse 3
Child don't u know that the feeling subsides
Your hopes fall down and watch them sublime.
Then you will know
Then you will see
The moment that you're born
You're just a piece of history
You're living in a lie that just a piece of history
........HISTORY
Bridge
You're sinking
You're sinking
You're sinking

That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn nah
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn child
That you'll never burn
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
To light up your soul
To light up your dreams
To light up your heart
That you'll never burn
