Lullaby

Whisper softly to the wind
An ancient lullaby
While she sits in her room
To play out the final chapter of her life

There's a man in the street
he holds a hand to passers by
but know one even looks at him
it's like they can't even try

We can't live no more on the streets of shame
and we can't close our eyes
to take away the pain

Because we live on the same street
we live on the sidewalk of life

We're under the same sky
although we pass each other by
there's a compassion deep inside

As it washes over you
washes over me
soaks us to the bone

In a house devoid of love
lies a child on his own
but no one comes to rescue him
it's like they don't even know

A women lies bleeding
her eyes lost feeling so long ago
as she drinks her excesses
but no one tells her no

We can't live no more on the streets of shame
and we can't close our eyes
to take away the pain

Because we live on the same street
we live on the sidewalk of life

We're under the same sky
although we pass each other by
there's a compassion deep inside

As it washes over you
washes over me
soaks us to the bone
