She sits there singing a quiet melody
only i see in her eyes
the invisible tears she hides so well
the pain she refuses to cry
no one but me sees what lies
behind her fagile soul
nobody she allows to know
The heart beats with a longing for love
singing a unsung song
a voice so small no one hears
the little girl crying out from within
i hear the voice that no one hears
i see her pain so clearly
and one day i hope my prayer will come true
that she'll make it through the night safely
