Nobody's Child

歌詞

I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day And stopped just for a moment just to watch the children play A lonely boy was standing and when I asked him why He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child Just like a flower I'm growing wild No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child People come for children and take them for their own But they all seem to pass me and I am left here all alone I know they'd like to take me but when they see I'm blind They always take some other kids and I am left behind I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child Just like a flower I'm growing wild No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child No mommy's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry Sometimes it gets so lonely, I wish that I could die I'd walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see And just like all the other kids, there'd be a home for me I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child Just like a flower I'm growing wild No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child
