Wayward One lyrics

And they cry

And they call

As the wayward walk alone

City lights

Urban sprawl

In a place no one should know

Shown no grace

Shown no love

These mean streets are meant for none

[Refrain:]

Take them back to the start

Let the purest of heart

Know their worth is still spoken

As they fight to exist

We neglect and resist

Let this circle be broken

Broken homes

Broken lives

They repeat themselves in time

It's passed on

Down the line

Till we heal the wounds inside

It's not too late

To make things right

Dress the wounds with love's pure light

[Refrain:]

Take them back to the start

Let the purest of heart

Know their worth is still spoken

As they fight to exist

We neglect and resist

Let this circle be broken

They're waiting

They still cry

They want to know they'll be all right

All I'm saying

Can we try

To bring the wayward ones back home tonight?

Bring the wayward ones back home tonight

[Refrain:]

Take them back to the start

Let the purest of heart

Know their worth is still spoken

As they fight to exist

We neglect and resist

Let this circle be broken
