Warrior Child Lyrics

The day is ended and you're not even dressed
It's taken all you have to just get out of bed
The war has kept you on you knees and you confess:
I am tired
There's nothing left
When all you had was given in the raging fight
You fear your life has been wasted here in this cold night
Empty and alone, you cry those precious tears

Warrior Child
I'm still here

CHORUS
Forsaken
Not my warrior child
Abandoned
Never will I forget you
My child I love you so
And someday you'll finally know
But until then
Please be strong

You've carried soldiers on your back to get them here.
The wounded broken ones you've fought for all those years
You've fed them all you have and now you're weak and faint

Loved, you are
In Heaven's Gates

CHORUS
Forsaken
Not my warrior child
Abandoned
Oh no never will I forget you
My child I love you so
And someday you'll finally know
But until then
Would you please be strong

CHORUS
Forsaken
Not my warrior child
Abandoned
Oh no never will I forget you
My child I love you so
And someday you'll finally know
But until then
Please be strong
