Homeless Child

Wake up it’s a new day, the old day is done You can cry about it if you want The rain in the river, the baby in your arms Proud mother, you try so hard Jesus christ, it don’t take much To fall asleep beneath the burning sky Oh my god, homeless child The world will leave you breathless every time Wake up it’s a new day, the old day forgot You can start it over if you want Clean and sober, a year coming up Tiny daughter, unborn son Jesus christ, it don’t take much To lose the luck you been living on til now Oh my god, homeless child The world will leave you sleeping on the ground Nothing but a string of broken chances Strangers look away and walk on by Nothing but a world without answers Just another list, another endless line Jesus christ, it don’t take much To go from just enough to nothing in the end Oh my god, homeless child The world will leave you hanging by a thread
