The Orphans
The children, the children
Will anyone care
A little girl just wants somebody to care
So badly, so badly
They want to be loved
Who to call mommy
Who to call daddy
So painful, so painful
Are the lonely nights
With no one to hold them,
Oh so tight
There’s hope, there’s hope
If they just close their eyes
Maybe one day
Maybe one day…
