“The World Is Crying”
(A.J. Foti)

A homeless man out on the street,
He’s begging me to give him something to eat,
I tell him I barely have enough for myself,
He stands there like a toy on the shelf, crying…

Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah!

A bride stands on the altar alone,
She’s waiting for her groom to come home,
I tell her that it’s not meant to be,
Mascara smeared, she falls to her knees, crying…

Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah!

A small baby child cries for his food,
The offspring of the odd or the crude,
If I had the means I’d take him under wing,
My nourishment would be to teach him to sing…

Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah!

The world is crying,
My heart is sighing,
My love is dying,
The world is crying…

Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-o-o-o,
Whoa-o, whoa-o-o-o-ah!
