The Orphaned Ones by The Wild Years Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I know you had to lie
You know I had to hide from your mistakes
We gotta leave ‘em behind
Before the hand of time can have its way
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not beyond hope
Don’t turn us away
Treasure or torture
Whatever awaits
[Chorus]
One last tear for the dreams we had
You can’t leave me here
I can’t take you back
Faith turned fear and now we’re on the run
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
[Verse 2]
We weren’t destined to fly
We were born live our only life
And if eternity dies
Tell your soul to find me in the light
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not beyond hope
Don’t turn us away
Treasure or torture
Whatever awaits
[Chorus]
One last tear for the dreams we had
You can’t leave me here
I can’t take you back
Faith turned fear and now we’re on the run
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
[Outro]
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
I know you had to lie
You know I had to hide from your mistakes
We gotta leave ‘em behind
Before the hand of time can have its way
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not beyond hope
Don’t turn us away
Treasure or torture
Whatever awaits
[Chorus]
One last tear for the dreams we had
You can’t leave me here
I can’t take you back
Faith turned fear and now we’re on the run
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
[Verse 2]
We weren’t destined to fly
We were born live our only life
And if eternity dies
Tell your soul to find me in the light
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not beyond hope
Don’t turn us away
Treasure or torture
Whatever awaits
[Chorus]
One last tear for the dreams we had
You can’t leave me here
I can’t take you back
Faith turned fear and now we’re on the run
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
[Outro]
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
We’re the orphaned ones
What do we become?
