La Historia de Juan

This is the story of Juan
The boy nobody loved
Who grew up on the streets
Looking for love under the sun

His mother abandoned him
His father mistreated him
His home was an alley
His bed a cardboard, his friend God

Juan asked for love
And the world denied it to him
Juan asked for honor
And the world gave him dishonor

Juan asked for forgiveness
And the world hurt him
Juan asked and asked
And the world never listened

He just wanted to play
He just wanted to dream
He just wanted to love
But the world forgot him
He just wanted to fly
He just wanted to sing
He just wanted to love
But the world forgot him

His pain was so strong
That one day it took him
His pain was so strong
That his heart went out
His fear was so strong
That one day he cried alone
His fear was so strong
That one day his light went out

He just wanted to play
He just wanted to dream
He just wanted to love
But the world forgot him
He just wanted to fly
He just wanted to sing
He just wanted to love
But the world forgot him

He just wanted to play
He just wanted to dream
He just wanted to love
But the world forgot him
He just wanted to fly
He just wanted to sing
He just wanted to love
But the world forgot him
