Neglected

[Verse 1]
Why am I neglected
And left with my dreams
Dreams that my friends don't see?
Why am I neglected?
Won't somebody care for me?
(ah, mercy mercy!)

[Verse 2]
Why am I selected
To live without love?
I have so much to give!
Why am I neglected?
I'm human, yeah, and I want to live!
(ah mercy baby, you know I want to live!)

[Bridge]
Every shift needs a pause like a bird needs a tree
So there must be someone somewhere who's needing me!

[Verse 3]
I see love reflected
In millions of eyes
Just as it ought to be, yes!
But tell me, why am I neglected
Won't somebody care for me?
