In the month of June, five years ago

that's when I came to be,

And though I'm not yet wordly wise

my eyes can clearly see.

I love my mom and daddy too

I pray my soul to keep,

And I ask for a happy home

When I lay me down to sleep.



But lately mommy cries at night

she thinks that I won't hear,

When daddy said my name today

he wiped away a tear.

I know that something isn't right

I see it in their eyes,

Oh how I wish it wasn't so

but the truth can't be denied.



(Chorus)



I'm caught in the crossfire

of a war that can't be won,

Mom calls me her little man

daddy's only son.

I love them both, but I can't choose

which one to leave behind,

I'm caught in the crossfire

of a world that's so unkind.



Before you go to sleep tonight

say a prayer for me,

I'm one of the millions

from a broken family.

My wish is but a simple one

my needs they are but few,

The promise of a happy home

and love to see us through.



(Repeat Chorus 2x)
