Into the heart...of a child
I stay a while...oh, I can go back

Into the heart...of a child
I can smile
I can go there

Into the heart
Into the heart of a child
I can go back
I can stay awhile

Into the heart...

    General Comment:I have to say this is one of my favorite U2 songs, whether by itself or with cat dubh. It takes your mind off the hectic life that we as adults experience, 'into the heart of a child' don't take things so seriously, take some time to relax and have fun along the way, be a child for a day.

    General Comment:When life gets really hectic and complicated, don't you sometimes wish for the simplicity and the naivet of childhood....i think that's what this song is saying...but i agree with the an cat dubh comment...on the boy cd its like its just one long song because all the different songs run into one and they have the same underlying beat that just fuses them into one....as opposed to their later cd's that actually have breaks between songs...some people find it monotonous but i really like it...it provides a unified atmosphere and feel for the cd

    General Comment:wow this songs amazing cant believe no ones commented, probally cause its never alone, always preceded by an cat dubh. this songs about what the majority of the boy album is about-longing for boyhood and the innocence of childhood
