 "I wanna see Christmas through your eyes,
I want everything to be the way it used to be,
Back to being a child again, thinking the world was mine,
I wanna see Christmas, Christmas through your eyes."


There is beauty in a child's perspective /innocence - as explained in this article:
https://hubpages.com/family/The-beauty-of-a-childs-innocence

We grow up and we discover the world can be a cold, dark, evil place. We lose a lot of the innocence. We are also expected to behave as mature adults (be responsible, make/handle difficult decisions, and so on). Many adults would like to experience some "childhood wonder and dreaming" from time to time.

A struggle for some parents is how much information/knowledge to pass on to a very young child. Woulld they lose their innocence too early? This article discusses the struggle: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationopinion/11384246/Too-much-information-destroys-childhood-innocence.html
