Roxanne Potvin Hurting Child
I wish I could explain, make it better
Tell her there's no need for pain
No need to suffer for things in your past
You can't change
As she was crying to me, so loud
I stared ahead, lost in a cloud
Where could I start
To heal her crippled heart?
I tried my best to dry her tears
But the words she longs to hear
They're from the same heart
That made her own
When I looked into her eyes
I could see the hurting child
Hurting child, hurting child
You don't need to cry no more
Hurting child, hurting child
You don't need to cry no more
She looked so scared, so all alone
She seemed to shiver right down to her bone
As I looked upon
That side of her that had never grown
I tried my best to dry her tears
But the words she longs to hear
They're from the same heart
That made her own
When I looked into her eyes
I could see the hurting child
Hurting child, hurting child
You don't need to cry no more
Hurting child, hurting child
You don't need to cry no more
