PLEASE COME HOME

WHY DID SHE HAVE TO GO
Written by: S. P. Forster

Verse 1:

She held in so much hurt inside
and all the grief and sorrow
from all the harsh words
that pierced like sharp arrows.

Verse 2:

It hurt her Mother to watch and see
and understand and feel
the pain of her young daughter
caused by a cold, harsh world.

(Chorus)

Her Mother's heart cried out
Oh Dear child of mine
Why'd you have to go?
Oh Please please, come home!

Verse 3:
All the loss and trauma
of her boyfriend and grandma
all the bullying at School,
Oh how could life be so cruel.

Verse 4:

She lashed out in anger
with such grief and spite
at the one who loved her,
her scared and confused Mother.

(Chorus)

Her Mother's heart cried out
Oh dear child of mine
Why'd you have to go?
Oh Please, please come home!

Verse 5:

One dark night, she up and ran away
after a painful, hurt filled day
with another lost boy
she hoped could fill the dark void.

(Chorus)

Her Mother's heart cried out
Oh dear child of mine
Why'd you have to go?
Oh please, please come home!
