Haste

[Verse 1]

She's a destined child and she sits, with dreams of having friends

all this while, she's cried, behind and old white picket fence

and everyday, she's been alone, the school yard corner

is all she's known, her loneliness, I feel as if it where my own

And the rain comes, down on her

but she remains there, all alone

and the thunder begins to roll

well its a shame, another, lost soul

[Chorus]

well listen to me, little one

cause someday your going to feel a little lost

but in the end, pretty one

it'll turn out right, you'll see

oh believe me

and then, in the pouring rain, a distant voice, echo's out

she turns to see, her father, pleading her forgiveness again

and still, the rain comes

down on her

and it washes, the blood away

and as she can do nothing

a tearful mother, watches on

[Chorus]
