The Byrds  Child Of The Universe  by Roger McGuinn and Dave Gruisin

                 
Love for anyone who needs her
                                
Innocense is all that feeds her

Rolling through the mist
                  
Floating in a sea of madness
                                       
Reaching for the heighths of gladness

Or did she exist?
                     
Swirling ions from the stars
                      
Streaming down onto the earth
                  
>From a galaxy like ours
                 
Manifested in her birth
                
Child of the universe
                 
Giving freely of herself
                  
Purity of truth rehearse
                     
Leaving man her cosmic well
                 
Love for anyone who needs her
                                
Innocense is all that feeds her

Rolling through the mist
                  
Floating in a sea of madness
                                       
Reaching for the heighths of gladness

Or did she exist?
                     
Vision of an untouched grace
                      
Walking gaily through the sun
                          
No one else could take her place
                       
Nor the work that she'd begun
                 
Love for anyone who needs her
                                
Innocense is all that feeds her

Rolling through the mist
                     
Knowing what is understanding
                      
Patience that is undemanding
          
Or did she exist?

Or did she exist?

Or did she exist?
