Shungudzo - Fatherless Child Lyrics

Shungudzo Lyrics

"Fatherless Child"

Sometimes I feel like a waterless rose
It don't rain round here so I make my own storms
Sometimes I feel like I had to grow thorns
To protect me from the hands that break my bones

I'm feeling so alone
I have a house but not a home

And so I fly
When I really wanna cry
When I really wanna die
When I really wanna love
And so I fly
When I really wanna cry
When I really wanna die
When I really wanna love

(Love)

And I choose the way (I choose the way) of a fatherless child (of a fatherless child)
Go ask anyone who tried to take my wind
Cut through my face with a permanent smile
Even love can only love me for a while

I'm feeling so alone
I have a house but not a home

And so I fly
When I really wanna cry
When I really wanna die
When I really wanna love
And so I fly
When I really wanna cry
When I really wanna die
When I really wanna love

(Love)
