The Orphan - Marla Schaffel/Don Richard[00:00:00]

Written by：Paul Gordon/John Caird/Mike Berniker[00:00:00]

A flood of memory washes over me[00:00:01]

A lonely girl betrayed and battered[00:00:05]

Contrives affection from a doll she cradles so[00:00:11]

Thinking it will be the only love she'll ever know[00:00:15]

Her spirit is in pieces[00:00:25]

Her heart has broken at the seams[00:00:29]

She craves one drop of kindness[00:00:32]

But all she has are shattered dreams[00:00:36]

She curses the injustice[00:00:39]

And begs to know the reason why[00:00:43]

She suffers in this prison[00:00:46]

When all she wants to do is fly[00:00:50]

Over mountains[00:00:54]

Over oceans[00:00:56]

How her restlessness stirs[00:00:58]

For she longs for her liberty[00:01:03]

When will liberty be hers[00:01:06]

Her life is not of value[00:01:12]

Poverty secures her fate[00:01:16]

Condemned to be a woman[00:01:19]

Barely fit to educate[00:01:23]

She swallows her rebellion[00:01:26]

But there's a storm within her breast[00:01:30]

She tries to quell the downpour[00:01:32]

Yet cannot tame her soul's unrest[00:01:37]

And the lightning strikes inside her[00:01:41]

As she looks to the sky[00:01:45]

And she pledges to spread her wings[00:01:49]

Through a hurricane she'll fly[00:01:52]

Over mountains[00:01:56]

Over oceans[00:01:57]

How her restlessness stirs[00:01:59]

For she longs for her liberty[00:02:04]

When will liberty be hers[00:02:07]

There's no sight so sad[00:02:14]

No stench so bad[00:02:17]

As that of a naughty girl[00:02:19]

No crime so grave[00:02:23]

As children who misbehave[00:02:25]

When a girl can't be saved[00:02:31]

God hears her plea[00:02:34]

But he leaves her soul to me[00:02:37]
