There Was A Boy
There was a boyPlaying on a swingDeep in love with lifeLoving everythingAnd he'd speak to GodWhen all aloneMaking deals with God'Bout his dreams and hopesWhen the night would fallAnd he'd lie in bedListening to the tunesPlaying in his headAnd the boy made a wish,Prayed to God up high"Let me write a songMakes the whole world cryLet me write a songSo tender, sad, and sweetThe kind of songDrops men to their knees."Nowhere near a manHe didn't understand...Letras de cancionesThat to write a songMakes the whole world cryHave to hold the handOf a friend who diesHear your brother curse your nameWatch your mother fade awayWhile crooks steal your goldSuffer years being aloneNowhere near a manHe didn't understand...That to write a songMakes the whole world cryHave to fall in loveThen be deniedMeet hopeless kidsRaised in cruel neglectHear animals screamTortured half to deathThere was a boyPrayed to God up high"Let me write a songMakes the whole world cryLet me write a songTender, sad, and sweetThe kind of songDrops men to their knees."If I could reach that boyBefore it gets too lateWarn him there are wishesYou should never makeBut that boy was meAnd it's far too lateWrote this song in tearsWrote this song in painAnd now I'm a manAnd now I understandSo torn up insideJust want to cryI want to cry,... cry... cryOh, God, I want to cryI want to cry
