How it hurts Me to watch you How it hurts Me to see How you go on your own way How you think you are free
But you're only a shadow Of what you someday will be When you wind down your mainspring And turn your eyes back on Me
Though I know that day will be comin' In the meantime it grieves To see you wastin' your moments Moments you'll never retrieve Walkin' solo down the side streets Reachin' out for fantasies Tryin' to conquer all your loneliness By givin' in to the disease
Child come home Child come home... Child come home Child come home...
