I saw this child who never smiled |
|
I told him that's no way to live your life |
|
I saw him kneel down on his knees |
|
As he said please, please, please |
|
It's as if |
|
I could see inside his mind |
|
And it reminded me of mine |
|
And it became clear that he belonged here |
|
And he promised me he'd try |
|
If only you could have been there, |
|
With me and my brother |
|
John We tried so hard not to carry on |
|
But it was so obvious to everyone who was around |
|
Let me know if you see him around |
|
Let me know if you see him downtown |
|
I know there is something better than this |
|
I know there is |
|
There's gotta be |
|
I know there is something better than this |
|
I know there is |
|
There's gotta be |
|
I know there |
|
Is a place where |
|
I can just hang out |
|
With the friends who |
|
I brang out |
|
We can have some laughs smile and drink and have a good time |
|
With all the people we get |
|
Who I could never forget |
|
La la, la la la la la la |
|
Lotsa things that |
|
I would like to say |
|
To you in your troubled state |
|
But it's so hard when you're so good at keeping it to yourself |
|
And wait till the sun comes up in the morning |
|
If you come back we'll find a place for you |
