Some Lonely Kid

I'm walkin’ down the street
I have no one to meet
No preconceptions weighin' me down

This kid comes up to me
Asks me what I'm doin
Asks me where I’m from
And if i'm leavin' soon

Some lonely kid I've never met
Some lonely kid, never meet again

He tells me what its like
To live your life ‘round here
He says that gettin' stuck
It's his only fear

He says that its very hard
I said I understand
There's no answers
When you're only talkin’

Some lonely kid
I’ve never met
Some lonely kid
Never meet again

He asks me what its like
The place where I come from
What the people there really think about

He asks me if I'd write
I said I’d just forget
Then I told him, I'd remember him

Some lonely kid I've never met
Some lonely kid, never meet again
(Repeat.)

We stumbled through adulthood
We like it when its good
When its bad, it can't get no worse

I took his hand in mine
And then we said goodbye
He wished me a good life
And I wished him the same

Some lonely kid I’ve never met
Some lonely kid, never meet again
And I say Some lonely kid
Some lonely kid
Some lonely kid
Some lonely kid
