Kid, what changed your mood?
You've gone all said, so I feel sad, too
I think I know some things we never outgrow
You think it's wrong
I can tell you do
How can I explain
When you don't want me to?
Kid, my only kid
You look so small, you've gone so quiet
I know you know what I'm about
I won't deny it
But you forgive, though you don't understand
You've turned your head
You've dropped my hand
All my sorrow, all my blues
All my sorrow
Shut the light, go away
Full of grace, you cover your face
Kid, gracious kid
Your eyes are blue, but you won't cry
I know angry tears are too dear
You won't let them go
