Reach Out Richard - Mayer Hawthorne

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

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

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

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

The kid’s alright
