Someone's child but no one's friend A city street alone again Funny how tears don't wash away
Someone's child you'd never meet Merchandise on a darkened street A painted face with a child's eyes A paradox of sad disguise
When did I see You cry oh Lord When did I see You so far away from home
Someone's child now half alive Lives in a bottle just to survive Had a home and had a wife That's a story from a different life
We've all seen him a time or two He's not all that different from me and you He's more than a face or a name He's a reason why You came
When did I see You cry oh Lord When did I see You so far away
You say I closed my heart
When did I see You cry oh Lord When did I see You so far away, so far away, so far away from home
