Hey little one
So far from home
And so alone

Hey little one
I'm just li-ike you
I'm lonely too

The road of life is a long long road
When you walk alone
Then I found you
And I found a lo-ove
A love I've never know
A love I've never know

Hey
Hey, hey, hey little one
Don't go away
Tell me you'll stay

Hey hey, hey, hey little one
I'm just like you
I'm so lonely too
