Wickenden Kids

Cold are the winds between us, a shiver in the sun
Dark are the clouds that hold her and trickle slowly down the evening
Because she thought I wouldn't know;
She thought her eyes they wouldn't show
How every speck of a doubt she's been toting about
Couldn't cut through the clout of despair

And when I saw her I said “Baby, I know
I know the things you've been through”
Beneath the moonlight she was standing alone
Beneath the festering truth

And I said love. Isn't it so fine and
I've got you on my mind and all those
Wickenden kids are smashing on the walls
So loud that you can hear them out in Central Falls

So as the night it dwindled and swept her from within
She drew a picture of the villain on the bathroom mirror
She knew her mind had gone astray
She took a glance and ran away
And in the midst of the shame she had lost her own name
And the notions that came with it

And when I saw her I said “Baby, I know
I know the things you've been through”
Beneath the moonlight she was standing alone
Beneath the festering truth

And I said love. Isn't it so fine and
I've got you on my mind and all those
Wickenden kids are smashing on the walls
So loud that you can hear them out in Central Falls
