As I was slowly passing 
An orphans' home one day
And stopped for just a moment
To watch the children play
Alone a boy was standing 
And when I asked him why
He turned with eyes that could not see 
And he began to cry

I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
Just like the flowers 
I'm growing wild
No mummy's kisses 
And no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me
I'm nobody's child

People come for children 
And take them for their own
But they all seem to pass me by 
And I am left alone
I know they'd like to take me 
But when they see I'm blind
They always take some other child 
And I am left behind

I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
Just like a flower
I'm growing wild
No mummy's kisses 
And no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me
I'm nobody's child

No mommy's arms to hold me 
Or soothe me when I cry
Sometimes it gets so lonely
I wish that I could die
I'll walk the streets of heaven 
Where all blind can see
And just like all the other kids 
There'd be a home for me

I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
Just like a flower
I'm growing wild
No mummy's kisses 
And no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me
I'm nobody's child

Nobody wants me
I'm nobody's child
