Bette Midler - Hallelujah lyrics

rate me

I don't know if you can hear me

Or if you're even there

I don't know if you would listen

To a humble prayer

Yes, I know I'm just an outcast

I shouldn't speak to you

Still I see your face and wonder

Were you once an outcast too

I ask for nothing

I can get by

But I know so many

Less lucky than I

God help the outcasts

The poor and down trod

I thought we all were

The children of God

I don't know if there's a reason

Why some are blessed, some not

Why the few you seem to favour

They fear us

Flee us

Try not to see us

God help the outcasts

The tattered the torn

Seeking an answer

To why they were born

Winds of misfortune

Have blown them about

You made the outcasts

Don't cast them out

The poor and unlucky

The weak and the odd

I thought we all were

The children of

God...
