In the middle of the night,
|
No one heard the boy
|
Who cried himself to sleep
|
Didn't care about himself cuz he
|
Hurt too much, he was hurt too much
|
And the burden of the world was put
|
On a hurting child, hurting child
|
Who never smiled
|
The world was put on the hurting child,
|
Hurting child
|
I sing for the hurting child
|
I sing for the hurting child
|
|
In the middle of the fight
|
No one saw the girl who thought it
|
Was her fault, didnt know about her pain
|
Though it was right there
|
No one said they cared
|
And the burden of the world was put
|
On a hurting child, hurting child
|
Who never smiled
|
The world was put on the hurting child,
|
Hurting child
|
I sing for the hurting child
|
|
I sing for the children, dream for the children,
|
Cry for the children now
|
So I sing for the children, dream for the children,
|
Smile for the children now
|
Said the world was put
|
On a hurting child, hurting child
|
Who never smiled
|
The world was put on the hurting child,
|
Hurting child
|
I sing for the hurting child
|
|
I sing for the children, dream for the children,
|
Cry for the children now
|
So I sing for the children, dream for the children,
|
Smile for the children
|
...I was that hurting child
|
