Runaways And Throwaways
Some of them need a Mother,
Some of them need a Dad.
All of them need this one thing,
A love they never had.
Some of them ran away from home,
Some of them had to leave.
All of them, even if they could stay,
Have little hearts that grieve.
You'll find them living on the streets.
You'll find them in the parks.
No matter where you find them,
They'll be carrying broken hearts.
They need a friend, a loving hand.
They need someone to trust.
Reach out and show them that you care.
No one else will, we must.
Runaways and throwaways,
People no one loves.
Reach out and show them that you care.
No one else will, we must.

I can't stand all the words that seem to
