You wrote "The Kiss" and it is beautiful
I can listen again and again
You never really got a break
From the carwrecks and the painYou loved the songs of the pioneers
And the Hollywood cowboy stars
You were just trying to put a hand
To where we are, where we are, where we areLiving in a '55 Cadillac
Five people sleep in shifts
Robbing liquor stores and going back
With the cash and rolling in itYou loved the songs of the pioneers
And the Hollywood cowboy stars
You were just trying to put a hand
To where we areYou never talked about your past
About the drugs and walking in the streets
They found you with a needle in your arm
Beloved books strewn around your feetYou loved the songs of the pioneers
And the Hollywood cowboy stars
You were just trying to put a hand
To where we areYou loved the songs of the pioneers
And the Hollywood cowboy stars
You were just trying to put a hand
To where we are, where we are, where we are, where we are
