She grew up the streets of the kingdom
She is starving and dirty and poor
She's alone with not one to claim her
Everywhere that she goes she's ignored
And every day they gather to see it
As the king rides his carriage through town
The little girl gets pushed back behind them
Out of sight she falls to the ground
You and I are only orphans
Who are desperately longing for home
We are lonely and abandoned
Wondering if there's a place we belong
O is there a place we belong
The wheels halt and the people whisper
As the King steps out in the marketplace
Now his robes are dusty and dirty
But there's mercy and love on his face
And she sees the king coming closer
As he holds out his hands and kneels down
Her little eyes start to get teary
As he picks her up and gives her a crown
You and I are only orphans
Who are desperately longing for home
We are lonely and abandoned
Wondering if there's a place we belong
O is there a place we belong
Now she's wearing new clothes
And she sits at the banqueting table
With others like her
They were dirty and hungry
But now they're a family
The king is their father forever
You and I were only orphans
Who were desperately longing for home
We were lonely and abandoned
Wondering if there's a place we belong
You and I were only orphans
The King finally gave us a home
We were lonely and abandoned
Now we know there's a place we belong
There is always place we belong
Do you know there's a place you belong
