Don’t Look Away

A scared little girl who barely speaks
One look in her eyes says it all
The bruised little boy living down the street
Says it’s just one more bicycle fall

Who will speak for this innocent girl
And take her trembling hand
Who will pick up this battered boy
And help him take a stand

Don’t look away, they need you to see
These children in pain are children in need
No child should endure living life in this way
Take a look through their eyes, and don’t look away

It’s up to you, it’s up to me
We have to get involved
If we keep on looking the other way
Nothing will ever be solved

Don’t look away, they need you to see
These children in pain are children in need
No child should endure living life in this way
Take a look through their eyes, and don’t look away
