Shooting Star: Compassion [lyrics]

Shooting Star

Compassion

Girl, the street's not your friend

But the things that happened at home

Just had to end

And gone, that little girl smile

It only someone could hold you

Just for a while

CHORUS

And show some compassion, in your life

Show some compassion, we know that it's right

He's just a boy, a child or the street

Will he ever be given a chance

A chance to compete

And pride, like a badge on his heart

If we'd only give him the chance

To make a new start

CHORUS

Oh love, it's easy to say

But there's a tear in the eye of a child

That won't wash away

And lost, like a dream in the night

It seems we're always taking for granted

The things in our lives

CHORUS
