Richard hello, I know it"s 4 am on New Year"s day
I never made it home last night, alright
My mind has slowly dropped the charge and I"ll be out today
I know that that won"t make it right
It"s never black and white but,
Richard you told me all I need to know
But there"s some things you can"t prepare for
All I ever wanted to
Is be as good a man as you
[Chorus:]
So don"t you be concerned, the kid"s alright
I"ve got to live and learn,
The kid"s alright
I know that you will see
The kid"s alright
I"ll find my way eventually
Richard your tears follow the wheel as you wipe them away
I"ve never seen you so far gone along
The snow is ... as you wonder what you didn"t say
When I"m the one who got it wrong,
I try to keep you calm cause,
Richard you showed me what was wrong or right
But now I gotta live my own life
I will fall along the way
But I"ll remember what you said
[Chorus:]
So don"t you be concerned, the kid"s alright
I"ve got to live and learn,
The kid"s alright
I know that you will see
The kid"s alright
I"ll find my way eventually
Oh-on reach out Richard
Oh-on reach out
Oh-on reach out Richard
Oh-on reach out
Oh-on reach out Richard
I know you see yourself inside my eyes
Oh-on reach out
Richard don"t worry cause the kid"s alright
Oh-on reach out
I gotta live and learn
Richard you barely made it out of school
Well look at everything you"ve been through
Apṗles fall right from the tree
As long as you are here for me
[Chorus:]
I"ll never be concerned, the kid"s alright
I"ve got to live and learn,
The kid"s alright
I know that you will see
The kid"s alright
I"ll find my way eventually
So don"t you be concerned, the kid"s alright
I"ve got to live and learn,
The kid"s alright
I know that you will see
The kid"s alright
I"ll find my way eventually
The kid"s alright
