Dear Congress, (17) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No hands to warm
No bedtime story, no lullaby
No little steps in the middle of the night
And the nation's numb
Is this what our forefathers had in mind
What is happening in Washington

[Chorus]
'Cause it’s not enough
Your thoughts and prayers
You send your love
You say you care
But you are not my baby

[Verse 2]
Oh but my heart has died
Standing alone in an empty room
Except for my child but she's not really there
And all the people have gone
And I want to pick her up and take her home
I can’t bear to leave her here

[Chorus]
It’s not enough
Your thoughts and prayers
You send your love
You say you care
But you are not my baby

[Bridge]
Oh bless the child, oh rest their souls
I bet those lawmakers don’t know
This feeling that...

[Chorus]
It’s not enough
Your thoughts and prayers
You send your love
You say you care
But you are not my baby
Can you do something
So that there’s not more gone babies
