Little Boy Lost
Count to a thousand and I'll be back for you
She said as she walked through the door
So he counted
Every day he counted
He watched
And waited
And counted
For days and weeks
He counted
For months and years
He counted
Long past a thousand
He counted
But she didn't come back for him
She'd gone
To a new life
With a new man
And a new child
And he didn't count any more.
Little Boy Found
I hear your cries my child
But I cannot see you
You strayed from my side
Too far
The night closes in
And the strange sounds scare you
The danger's now greater
By far
My hunt grows more urgent
I won't desert you
I'm closing in fast, there
You are!
