God Save The Child God save the child Lost in the sea God save the child God save the child
You didn't even say goodbye When you left me Bye bye bye for now An empty bed was all I heard After hanging on your every word For so long Been so long
God save the child God save the child
I met you at a party one time Said your name didn't go with your eyes Wasn't that a laugh? I thought that maybe we could make it 'Cause into every rain a little life must fall Life must fall
God save the child God save the child
Your smile said that you'd overheard All the elephants' last words That I never heard And when you told me some And I wrote this song I knew it couldn't last for long Life must fall
God save the child God save the child
As I begin to begin again The sky's not even sympathetic Enough to cry I sit here crying, so bewildered Don't you know you're lost without me Please come back I need you
