"Lost Child" lyrics

"Lost Child"

Tell me what I need to know
I don't care if it cuts me to the bone
Tell me just as long as it's true
'Cause you know that, baby
I would do the same for you

On down the avenue
I'm a lost child
Just begging for forgiveness
Crying for my mama
You know you been my witness
Lost child
Just trying to be a dancer
I pop the question to you
Can't you get me back the answer?
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know
Need to know right now

Tell me where all the robins go
'Cause I no longer see 'em
When we're out walking in the snow
And I can feel it, baby
When that heatwave's coming down
And all the ice is melting
And for a moment I am found
Love is all around

I'm a lost child
Just begging for forgiveness
Crying my eyes out
You know you been my witness
Lost child
Just trying to be a dancer
I pop the question to you
Can't you get me back the answer?

Lost child
Just begging for forgiveness
Crying for my mama
You know you been my witness
Lost child
Just trying to be a dancer
I pop the question to you
Can't you get me back the answer?
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know
'Cause I need to know
