Real Gone Kid

'Cause I'd tear out the pages that I got in these books

Just to find you some words, just to get some reward

And I'd show you all the photographs that I ever got took

And I'd play you old 45's that now mean nothing to me

And you're a real gone kid

Maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

Maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

Maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

I'll do what I should have did

Now I've stood on your shadow and I've watch it grow

And it's shaken and it's driven me, and let me know

Let me know, let me know, let me know

'Bout all the old 45's and the paperback rooms

And it's scattered all the photographs of summers and suns

And you're a real gone kid

And maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

Maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

Maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

I'll do what I should have did

'Cause you're a real gone kid

Cried and I craved, hoped and I saved

And I put away those souvenirs, souvenirs, souvenirs

I cried and I craved, hoped and I saved

And I put away those souvenirs, souvenirs, souvenirs

You're a real gone kid

And maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

Maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

Maybe now, baby (Maybe now, baby)

I'll do what I should have did

'Cause you're a real gone kid

'Cause you're a real gone kid

'Cause you're a real gone kid

(Do what I should've done)

'Cause you're a real gone kid

(Say what I should've said)

You're a real gone kid
