A BABY THAT CRIES

WRITTEN BY: MICHAEL SULLIVAN

There’s a voice in the wind

that nobody’s hearing

It’s faint and it’s distant

but there’s no mistaking

The voices of children

innocent and pure

And there dying of hunger

and we’ve got the cure

And we think we’re so important

with our busy lives

There’s a hand reaching out

and there’s a baby that cries

In a world of madness

There’s no reason or
