The Kid

It's a cold wind Cuts me in half When I see you with him In the back room Head in my hands Trying to keep hold of us Like some ghost of a good time A peach in cellophane I wake up and hit the hall light I'm on my own again The kid won't know how happy he's been Till he can't get hold of you The guy won't know what loneliness is Till he can't get hold of you At the deep end Catching my breath How long was I under I remembered Just what he said That night when you couldn't stop laughing Like some ghost of a good time A peach in cellophane I wake up and hit the hall light I'm on my own again The kid won't know how happy he's been Till he can't get hold of you The guy won't know what loneliness is Till he can't get hold of you Don't know how late it is I need to calm my head down Took the wrong medicine I'm seeing stars again The kid won't know how happy he's been Till he can't get hold of you The guy won't know what loneliness is Till he can't get hold of you The kid won't know how happy he's been Till he can't get hold of you The guy won't know what loneliness is Till he can't get hold of you
