Street Stories - A Ringside Seat To Over 4 Decades Of Taking Jesus To The Streets Of The World

Lonely Girl/Broken Boy

by Bobby Chance

Lonely Girl works on the corner,

wonderin’ how her life turned out this way.

Sure, Mom and Dad, they tried to warn her,

but all of her dreams swept her away.

She is a prisoner of loneliness,

held captive behind the walls around her heart.

And every day brings greater hopelessness.

Lonely Girl’s life, is fallin’ apart…

Lonely Girl, Lonely Girl.

Broken Boy picks up a 45,

Holds it to his head and spins the wheel.

Just can’t find any reason to be alive,

he’s felt all of the pain that he can feel.

He is a prisoner of brokenness,

Held captive behind the walls around his heart.

And every day brings greater hopelessness.

Broken Boy’s life, is comin’ apart…

Broken Boy, Broken Boy.

Lonely Girl and Broken Boy, what about Jesus?

He’s standin’ at the door of your heart, won’t you let Him
