You can't kick the leaves today darling
'Cause it's wet underfoot
And your friends subscribe to the view
That I am just no good
Still I'd like to express the sincerity
Of my actions towards you, early on
Is there hope for us?
I didn't think it'd hurt to think of you
It pains me, pains me
A kind of loving
Prior to which we never knew
It pains me
In a town as small as this one
There's no escaping you
Though, I know you're not impressed by me
What would you have me do?
I'll immerse myself in guilt and pain
For your benefit
Is there hope for us?
I didn't think it'd hurt to think of you
It pains me, pains me
A kind of loving
Prior to which we never knew
It pains me
I am but a boy but I won't be soon
The consequences of the things we do
They will be felt
Long after we are young
I didn't think it'd hurt to think of you
It pains me, pains me
A kind of loving
Prior to which we never knew
It pains me so
I didn't think it'd hurt to think of you
It pains me, pains me
A kind of loving
Prior to which we never knew
Yes it pains me so
Pains me, pains me
'Cause it's wet underfoot
And your friends subscribe to the view
That I am just no good
Still I'd like to express the sincerity
Of my actions towards you, early on
Is there hope for us?
I didn't think it'd hurt to think of you
It pains me, pains me
A kind of loving
Prior to which we never knew
It pains me
In a town as small as this one
There's no escaping you
Though, I know you're not impressed by me

A kind of loving
Prior to which we never knew
Yes it pains me so
Pains me, pains me
