RICHARD MARX - Children Of The Night lyrics

rate me

All that I know in my life,<br>I have learned on the street<br>No magic carpet, no genie, no shoes on my feet<br>Will I wake up from this nightmare? <br>A fear that chills me to the bone<br>Though I may be one of many<br>I feel so all alone<br><br>We are the children of the night<br>We won't go down without a fight<br>Our voice is strong, our future's bright<br>And thanks to what we learned from you<br>We've grown into the children of the night<br><br>Left by my father with only this scar on my face<br>Told by my mother that,<br>'no, you were just a mistake'<br>I have tasted my own hunger<br>Sold my body to survive<br>Some have paid to scratch the surface<br>But they can't touch what's inside<br><br>We are the children of the night<br>We won't go down without a fight<br>Our voice is strong, our future's bright<br>And thanks to what we learned from you<br>We've grown into the children of the night<br><br>How I long for something better<br>Than this life I know too well<br>Lord, I know I'm bound for heaven<br>Cause I've done my time in hell<br><br>We are the children of the night<br>We won't go down without a fight<br>Our voice is strong, our future's bright<br>And thanks to what we learned from you<br>We've grown into the children of the night
