Elegy - The Forgotten lyrics

[Music: Henk van der Laars & Dirk Bruinenberg] [Lyrics & vocal melody: Ian Parry] Ignored and hated by many, he can't stand the very sight of himself. Believing only that people wish him harm, while all the time there is a sympathetic eye from an admiring lady. As the years pa**, she slowly gains his trust, but not without incident. Being of a pa**ive and loving nature, she helps to transform his anger with regression. Eventually his fears are changed into a positive belief in the goodness we all possess. [Verse] Ignored by the many, adored by the chosen few Friends he hasn't any, just his own point of view [Bridge] There stands a lady inbetween the shadows Waiting patiently for you Holding out her hand she whispers Together we'll pull through She transforms his anger Helps him wipe away the tears [Chorus] I'll be there, standing next to you I'll be there I will pray, I will pray for you 'Cos you're one of the forgotten children [Outro] One of the, one of those forgotten children One of the forgotten friends Cast away those sins forgiven Fight on, fight on to the end You've gotta fight on
