From the recording Lifetimes
Lyrics
VOICES
(Smith)
Helpless and abandoned
Hopeless little girl
Running from the darkness
In a terrible, big world
No-one left to turn to
Nowhere left to hide
Lost in time forever
Hanging on for all your life
Hush my sweet child
Don’t you cry
For the Lord has heard you
Way on high
Watch his angels rush
From heaven above
Hear their voices whispering
Words of love
Lonely as an island
Anxious and afraid
Trouble starts to surface
Dreams begin to fade
Never had a shelter
Never had a friend
Counting every second
Till the painful, bitter end
