	Story Behind the Song Parental abuse often does more to the child then anyone could every guess. Lyrics V1 The little boy could not foresee The story that would be told As trouble came into his life He'd soon fall from the fold. Trust lead to betrayal No longer safe in his home The world he knew was shattered In his heart he felt alone. V2 He always blamed himself Though it never was his fault Living in his father's shadow Even after he was caught His father claimed no guilt For the terror he had caused Now seems the worst crime of all Had left this little boy lost. Chorus: No more childhood fantasies 'Cause now there's only memories Forced to live with shame and strife Cut through his heart like a knife No way to escape the pain Afraid it would happen again His life was the ultimate cost Now there's just pictures of a little boy lost. V3 But it was different one day They found him up in a tree In the woods where he always played Not the way he should be A note nearby read "I can't deal with the shame I'll be much better off dead" The little boy's words exclaimed. Chorus: No more childhood fantasies 'Cause now there's only memories Forced to live with shame and strife Cut through his heart like a knife No way to escape the pain Afraid it would happend again His life was the ultimate cost Now there's just pictures of a little boy lost. Tag: "Why couldn't you love me And not treat me this way?" Were the last words heard From the little boy...lost.... (c) 2002 Barbara Jean Green/Sonny Green/Sharon Irene Wells
