"Come On In"
by Twila Paris
from the album "The Warrior is a Child"
   
Little children like to form a circle
Tightly holding hands with all their friends
Can imagine there's a line around them
Keeping out the ones that are not in
But standing on the edge is not the same
Those who watch can never win the game

Are you on the outside?
Come on in

There's a family that has formed a circle
Though its kinder arms are open wide
But there is a line you must cross over
If you really want to come inside
Standing on the edge is not the same
Those who watch can never share the name

Are you on the outside?
Come on in

The line becomes a wall when you stand behind it
But grace can make a door if you choose to find it

Are you on the outside?
Come on in
