Little boy, why don't you dry your eyes,
Forget your tears.
Don't believe the hurtful lies
Told to you these years.
Chorus 1
I've tried to make you see
How precious you are to me.
But I am just the same
With no one else to blame.
Verse 2
Others can't comprehend your pain
Holding you down.
The struggle just to stay near sane
That often makes you frown.
Chorus 2
I've tired to make you see
How precious you are to me.
But I am just the same
Calling out your name.

And I wonder,
Oh I wonder
If the world will ever see
Your strength
In the hard times,
Your overflowing beauty.

Verse 3
You're tired of this endless war
Waging inside.
Not even sure what you go on for,
These wounds you cannot hide.
Chorus 2
Chorus 1
Verse 1
I am here. I am here.
