He's afraid of me He won't play with me He's got terror in his eyes He don't laugh with me He just cries to me He's a child that never smiles HOW COME THE CHILD WITH THE CANDY CAIN DON'T EVER SMILE BACK TO ME? WHY DON'T HE TALK TO ME MORE? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CHILD THAT NEVER SMILES? Will he play no more? With his friends no more? And turn back to a normal life? It got tough for him To get rid of it Of the torture in his mind HOW COME THE CHILD WITH THE CANDY CAIN DON'T EVER SMILE BACK TO ME? WHY DON'T HE TALK TO ME MORE? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CHILD THAT NEVER SMILES?
