Little boy, I hear you calling And Im hoping to find you Little boy, youre so alone and angry Because no ones there for you Little boy, you hide your needs and fears from me Because Im ashamed of you I cannot let them see that you live in me Your pleas simply must be stilled But you, little boy, you keep on calling Because you believe in me Little boy, you drove your daddy crazy With your curiosity Little boy, no one came to save you When his rage crushed your spontaneity Little boy, I sacrificed my love for you To learn to be and feel properly I learned to live as if you were a shameful part of me Preferred the mask of grandiosity But without you, little boy, my life is empty So you keep on haunting me Live, little boy, live, I will try to love you now Teach me little boy, teach me, to heal my wounded soul Be, little boy, be, be a child, be yourself, be free I will give to you the love I want for me In loving you I help myself to be My little boy, he waited patiently For years until I heard his cries to me My little boy, I denied him But he kept on loving me faithfully My little boy learned that our survival Demands not betraying our reality He knows me well, yes, he can always tell When I lie about his needs and gifts and dreams Were old friends, you see this child and I The little boy I sing to lives in me The little boy I reach for once was me God says the little boy deserves to be |
