Lonely children
The Children out there in cold
looking for pennies of the gold
can spare few coins they say
has people pass them by
wandering the streets at day to night
no where to go in the light
while they only have few things to keep them warm from rain
still people dont see there pain in there pain in their eyes
tears fall from there face
they walk past people who think they are out of place
children have no race or colour
they need love hope and food
the lonely children out there walking among themselves
some last some die
still at night they cry for help
have a heart have soul
when you walk past the children
give little there only ask for bit of money
sometimes i see rich get richer
and poor getting poorer
sometimes children have no choice
they hide they run maybe there home wasnt a home
the father wanted son got daughter
who they got thrown out just being there
when your family suppose to care
they wasnt fair to the children of night
so when your walking with hands in pocket all nice and warm
think of lonely children of the night
some one outthere can see there little faces full of sorrow
wishing for better tomorrow
doesnt cost be nice
does cost for them
so please think twice of children of night
we was once children we was once like them
i see world getting fat on greed
when they could easily feed children of the night
