I know there were men who told you the same words
I know you had friends who promised to stand by you
I know you remember the pain that followed
I know the threat of fear that runs through you
I remember the voice that abandoned
I remember the eyes that looked down
I remember the heart that ignored
I remember you were only a child
I didn’t make you a child of rejection
I made you my reflection
A child of unfailing affection
And my heart cries out to you
My heart cries out to heal you
I know of the burning rage that destroys sometimes
I know of the walls that you’ve built to protect
I know how you go looking in all the wrong places
I know of it's damaging effect
I saw the hands that were insensitive
I saw the mind that came for something else than you
I saw your heart, instead of your body
I saw you heart and I saw you
I didn’t make you a child of rejection
I made you my reflection
A child of unfailing affection
And my heart cries out to you
My heart cries out to heal you
My child, my heart cries out to love you.
**Kom tot mij, allen die vermoeid en belast zijn en ik zal je rust geven**
