Hey Kid

Okay, okay
Hey kid
Hey kid
Don't go too far
I can't protect you when you're shooting like a star
These hours and this heart
They are the only things that I have left to give
Hey kid
At the end of fairy tales (where do we go?)
Into sunsets in the west (that's where we'll go)
Hold my hand (hold my hand)
And promise you won't let go again
Hold my hand (hold my hand)
And promise you won't let go of me again
Hey kid
Hey kid
Breathe out and in
We've got to make it to the end so we can begin
Glad to be alive, to get it right
I want to take you in my arms and hold you too tight
Hey kid
At the end of fairy tales (where do we go?)
Into sunsets in the west (that’s where we'll go)
(Go)
Hold my hand (hold my hand)
And promise you won’t let go again
(Tell me, won't you hold my hand?)
Hold my hand (hold my hand, let you hold my hand)
And promise you won't let go of me again
And I need you more than you need me
You got magic in your bones
You are poetry
You are poetry to me
You are poetry
You are poetry to me
(You are poetry to me)
(You are poetry to me)
Hold my hand (let you hold, tell me, won't you hold me hand?)
And promise you won't let go again (you are poetry to me)
Hold my hand (won't you hold, tell me, won't you hold my hand?)
And promise you won't let go of me again (go off me again)
(Let you hold, tell me, won't you hold my hand?)
Don't let go of me again (you are poetry to me)
(Won't you hold, tell me, won't you hold my hand?)
Don't let go of me again
(Won't you hold, tell me, won't you hold my hand?)
Don't let go of me again (won't you hold, go off me again)
