I HEARD HER CRYING

By: Pepper Clark

I HEARD HER CRYING TONIGHT, THE LITTLE GIRL INSIDE ME,
SHE CRIES FOR HER OWN SANITY
SHE HAD WARMTH, SHE HAD LOVE, BUT NOW IT'S ALL GONE
WHY? SHE ASKS, DOES IT ALWAYS HAVE TO BE
THAT THERE'S PLENTY OF LOVE FOR EVERYONE, BUT NONE FOR ME?

I HEARD HER CRYING TONIGHT, THE CHILD THAT ALWAYS BELIEVED
THAT EVERYTHING ONE DAY WOULD BE HERS
BUT NOW SEES THOSE DREAMS WILL NEVER BE TRUE
BECAUSE THE ONE THING IN LIFE SHE WANTS, SHE CAN'T HAVE
AND THAT'S YOU
I HEARD HER CRYING TONIGHT
