Irene Ryder - Nobody's Child 1971

As I was slowly passing an orphans home one day.
I stood there for a moment just to watch the children play.
Alone a boy was standing and when I asked him why
He turned with eyes that cannot see and he began to cry.

I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
Just like the flowers Im growing wild.
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me
I'm nobody's child.

People they come for children and take them for their own.
But they all seem to pass me and I am left here alone.
I know they'd like to take me but when they see I'm blind
They always take some other child and Im left behind.

No mommy's arms to hold me and soothe me when I cry.
Sometimes it gets so lonely I just wish that I could die.
I'd walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see.
Then just like all the other kids there'd be a home for me.

I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
Just like the flowers Im growing wild.
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me
I'm nobody's child.
