I want to learn a love song,
Want to have that thing.
I want to learn a love song
And to hear my children sing.

They say you are foolish
For wanting the sun.
Say you are selfish
For learning to run.
They tell you that the darkness
Is a blessing in disguise
For you never have to notice
If you're sighted or you're blind
And they'll do their best to keep you from the light.

--"From Me to You," Janis Ian
