Nobody's Child - Karen Young

[00:09:200]I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day
[00:18:500]And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play.
[00:27:100]Alone a boy was standing
[00:32:100]and when I asked him why
[00:36:000]he turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry.
[00:47:500]I'm nobody's child
[00:51:500]I'm nobody's child
[00:57:000]just like a flower I'm growing wild.
[01:05:500]No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
[01:14:200]nobody wants me
[01:19:000]I'm nobody's child.
[01:26:500]People come for children
[01:30:100]and take them for their own.
[01:34:200]But they all seem to pass me by
[01:39:800]and I am left alone.
[01:44:500]I know they'd like to take me
[01:48:200]but when they see I'm blind
[01:53:200]they always take some other child
[01:57:900]and I am left behind.
[02:04:000]I'm nobody's child
[02:08:000]I'm nobody's child
[02:13:500]Just like a flower I'm growing wild.
[02:22:200]No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
[02:31:100]nobody wants me
[02:35:800]I'm nobody's child.
[02:43:000]No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry.
[02:51:200]Sometimes it gets so lonely I wish that I could die.
[03:01:000]I'd walk the streets of heaven
[03:04:100]where all the blind can see.
[03:10:000]And just like all the other kids
[03:14:700]there'd be a home for me.
[03:21:500]I'm nobody's child
[03:24:500]I'm nobody's child
[03:30:000]Just like a flower I'm growing wild.
[03:39:500]No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
[03:48:600]nobody wants me
[03:52:800]I'm nobody's child.
[03:59:800]Nobody wants me
[04:04:300]I'm nobody's child
