Oh the sun's gone down, her day begins And the rhythm of the darkness wakes the dead Don't answer eyes that smile, don't let them in They see the lonely child, she feels their sin But it's getting so much colder, and she's afraid Never going back to where the pain was She'd rather face the pain that's here and now
Someone's thrown away their children You can see them running from your smile Sing for the runaway children The throw away child
I'll make you safe and warm Words she needs to hear What they really mean Is no more little girl Don't see her anymore, they disappear
Yesterday they said that she was dying And just today I heard that she was dead
Someone's thrown away their children You can see them running from your smile Sing for the runaway children The throw away child
Someone's thrown away their children You can hear them only if you try Sing for the runaway children Goodbye
Someone's thrown away their children You can see them running from your smile Sing for the runaway children The throw away child
Someone's thrown away their children You can see them running from your smile Sing for the runaway children The throw away child
