When I have No Family

TITLE:
WHEN I HAVE NO FAMILY

(1)
Through the sound of rushing waters
Where silence has no habitation
I knew no ears but eyes
To see the roaring see below
A hope to see through all alone
When I have no family

(2)
On the bed of roses long ago
A helping hand I stretched
Friends and family alike
I soared the wings of help
Till help I see no more
When I have no family

(3)
But with this heart of ears
I long t hear the cry through the waters
A cry which slowly ended without help
In the gloom of my heart
I laughed on tears
When I have no family

(4)
Through the faceless dreams
Longing to see a face in the shadows
Till I realized there was no face to see
Time was fast gone on the waiting
It was but in vain to cry
When I have no family.
