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