Letra de Love for a Child (2023 Remaster)
There's a picture on my kitchen wall Looks like Jesus and his friends involved There's a party getting started in the yard And there's a couple getting steamy in the car parked in the drive Was I too young to see this with my eyes?And by the pool that night, apparently The chemicals weren't mixed properly You hit your head and then forgot your name Then you woke up at the bottom, by the drain And now your altitude and memory's a shameWhat about taking this empty cup and filling it up With a little bit more of innocence I haven't had enough; it's probably because When you're young, it's okay to be easily ignored I'd like to believe it was all about love for a childAnd when the house was left in shambles Well, who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass? Was it Mom who put my dad out on his ass? Or the other way around? Well, I'm far too old to care about that nowWhat about taking this empty cup and filling it up With a little bit more of innocence I haven't had enough; it's probably because When you're young, it's okay to be easily ignored I'd like to believe it was all about love for a childIt's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age And they never check to see my grades What a fool I'd be to start complaining nowWhat about taking this empty cup and filling it up With a little bit more of innocence I haven't had enough; it's probably because When you're young, it's okay to be easily ignored I'd love to believe it was all about love for a childIt was all about love
