This is a story of a little boy's journey from this world into the next, fears that he encounters and overcomes. It sounds very sad but it does have a happy ending - totally fictitious!

Lyrics

A PARTED SOUL IS WAITING
TRAPPED IN LIMBO GOT NOWHERE TO GO

HE?S A PRODUCT OF MISFORTUNE
A TRAGEDY THAT HE COULD NEVER KNOW

HE LEFT THIS LIFE SO QUICKLY
HE CAN HEAR HIS LOVE ONES CRY
BUT HE CAN?T MAKE THEM HEAR HIM
THREES GOT TO BE A REASON WHY

CHORUS
HE CRIES MOTHER CAN YOU HELP ME
WITH A PRAYER FROM DEEP INSIDE HIS SOUL
HE TRIES TO TELL HER HE?S A SPIRIT CHILD
ABANDONED AND ALONE X2

THERES GOT TO BE A REASON
HIS WORLD HAS GONE, HE DOESN?T UNDERSTAND
HE STARES INTO A BRIGHT LIGHT
AND SUDDENLY APPEARS AN OPEN HAND

WITH A LOVING, CARING GESTURE
THE HAND BECONES HIM HEAR
HIS FRIGHTENED AND CONFUSED NOW
MOTHER CAN YOU HEAR

CHORUS
HE CRIES MOTHER CAN YOU HELP ME
WITH A PRAYER FROM DEEP INSIDE HIS SOUL
HE TRIES TO TELL HER HE?S A SPIRIT CHILD
ABANDONED AND ALONE X2
HE IS SO ALONE..

HE?S LED INTO THE SAFETY
OF OTHER SOULS WHO HAVE GONE THAT WAY BEFORE
THEY KNOW HOW HE IS FEELING
THEY KNOW THEY NEED TO HELP AND REASSURE

HE?S HAPPY AND CONTENT NOW
CRADLED IN THEIR LOVE
HE SMILES UPON THE WORLD BELOW
FROM A HEAVEN UP ABOVE

CHORUS
HE NO LONGER CRIES MOTHER HELP ME
WITH A PRAYER FROM DEEP INSIDE HIS SOUL
HE DON?T TRY TO TELL HER HE?S A SPIRIT CHILD
BUT NO LONGER ALONE.
