The war kept us bound
We couldn’t see all the many things we could be
Our parents were sent away and told to come back another day.

The hope of tomorrow left the children in sorrow
The eyes, the tears, and the pain we all felt
Knowing our parents weren’t coming back made our hearts melt
Tears of a War Orphan

The pain, the sorrow the waiting on tomorrow
Waiting to be taken in
With someone of the same skin
The tears of War Orphans
