Sad Eyes

Little girl, little girl
why are your eyes filled with tears?
Are you listening to the whispers of the world
or holding onto your fears?

Little girl, little girl
What has life made of you
what once was pure and innocent
can no longer tell what's true

Little girl, little girl
you're starting to fade away
where once your voice rang so loud
now no one can hear what you have to say

Little girl, little girl
are you trying to piece together
what was once your heart
but is now broken forever

Little girl, little girl
I long to make your world a better place
put hope back into your heart
and put a smile onto your face

Little girl, little girl
just hold on for a while more
I promise you tomorrow will be better
You have no idea what is in store

Little girl, little girl
dry your sad eyes
I'll hold your hand now
And we'll fight away the goodbyes
Sleep well little girl...
