THE LITTLE ONES
Tonight, when you go to bed
Say a prayer for the little girl
Who needs her daddy's hug and kiss goodnight
Tonight, when you say your prayers
Whisper one for the little boy
Who needs the strong love in his father's eyes
Well its alright, for those of you
Who always knew just what its like
To have your daddy tuck you in at night
Its the little ones
Who always go unnoticed
Its the little ones who cannot find
The little words to tell
How their little hearts are breaking
How they cannot understand
Why if there's a God in heaven
He can't bring their daddy
Back to them again
Tonight, when you go to bed
Say a prayer for mom and dad
Their race was lost before its run
Tonight, don't forget to say your prayers
Whisper one for this wandering world
They know not what it is they've done
Its a shame how hearts grow cold
These children find as they grow up
Its hard to really feel God's father love
His father love
Its the little ones
Who always go unnoticed
Its the little ones who cannot find
The little words to tell
How their little hearts are breaking
How they cannot understand
Why if there's a God in heaven
He can't bring their daddy
Back to them again
