People walkin’ by very seldom
They say hi
They don’t know how
Wonderful you are
If they only knew all the things
You’ve been through
If only they could see your heart
I hear you crying for help
Please don’t blame yourself
You are not forgotten
You are not forgotten
When it’s time to go to sleep and
You try your best to keep
Yourself from falling apart
There’s no need to fear because I’m already here nd I’m the one
Who sees your heart
I hear you crying for help
Please don’t blame yourself
You are not forgotten
You are not forgotten
You are not just a face
In the crowd
You are not a forgotten child
Let me whisper it loud I love you
Now you can hold your head
Up high
‘Cause I’ll make everything alright
I’m committed to you
Smilin’ again
And eventually you’ll see
People’s similarities
That everyone just needs a friend
And when they’re cryin’ for help
You’ll be able to tell them
Please tell them for Me
You are not forgotten
You are not forgotten
