UNKNOWN SONGWRITER
©1991, 2003 RON CHASSNER

JUST A LITTLE BOY, WHEN DARKNESS FELL
HE SAW VISIONS IN HIS HEAD
HE USED TO DREAM ABOUT THE WITCH
THAT LIVED UNDERNEATH HIS BED
THE ONLY WAY THAT HE SURVIVED AND
GOT THROUGH ALL HIS FRIGHT
WAS WITH A LITTLE SONG THAT HE MADE UP
TO HELP HIM THROUGH THE NIGHT

CHORUS:
IT?S JUST A CHILDREN?S SONG, YOU?LL NEVER HEAR ON THE RADIO
Vs.2 (ANOTHER FOLK SONG)
Vs.3 (ANOTHER LOVE SONG)
JUST ANOTHER TUNE, SOME SINGER LEAVES BEHIND
HE CAN SING THE WORDS ALL THROUGH THE DAY?
HE CAN HUM THE TUNE ALL NIGHT
BECAUSE THE SONG, IT JUST KEEPS PLAYING IN HIS MIND
AND IT?S A SONG, THAT?S MUCH LIKE YOURS, MUCH LIKE MINE

AS THE YEARS WENT ON, AND HE GREW UP
HE BEGAN TO QUESTION ?WHY?
DISENCHANTED BY SEEING THE SUFFERING CROWDS
AND THE SILENCE OF THEIR CRIES
INSTEAD OF TURNING HIS HEAD, AND WALKING AWAY
FROM WHAT MOST DON?T WANT TO SEE
HE TOOK HIS GUITAR DOWN AND WROTE A VERSE OR TWO
ABOUT THE WAY, THINGS OUGHT TO BE

CHORUS 2

AS YEARS WENT ON, HE FINALLY MET,
THE WOMAN OF HIS DREAMS
HE HAD BEEN AROUND, AND KNEW ABOUT
ALL THE HEARTACHES AND THE SCHEMES
HE KNEW IT WAS RIGHT THE LOVE HE FELT
HE WANTED HER TO STAY
SO HE WROTE A LOVE-SONG, PUT HIS HEART IN THE WORDS--
IT?S KEPT HER ?TIL TODAY

CHORUS 3 AND OUT
