As I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day
And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play
Alone a boy was standing and when I asked him why
He turned with eyes that could not see and he began to cry
I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
Just like a flower I'm growing wild
No mummy's kisses and no daddy's smiles
Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
People come for children and take them for their own
But they all seem to pass me and I'm left here all alone
I know they'd like to take me but when they see I'm blind
They always take some other child and I am left behind
* Refrain
No mama's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry
Sometimes I get so lonely here I wish that I could die
Whe I walk the streets of Heaven where all the blind can see
Then just like all the other kids there'll be a home for me
* Refrain
