DESPERATE PEOPLE

SONG LYRICS:

Came a young boy laughin’
Skippin’ stones and ice cream cones
I thought I caught him tappin’ upon my door but then no more
He’s gone I’ve seen that boy before

Came a young man lyin’
Out in the rain in all his pain
I thought I caught him cryin’ so lost and poor but then no more
He’s gone I’ve seen that boy before

All the desperate people livin’ in a heartless world
They come and go and you never know
it could be they’re just like me – yeah
They’re just like you and me

Came an old man dyin’
Through the years through all his tears
I thought I caught him cryin’ along the shore but then no more
He’s gone I’ve seen that face before

All the desperate people livin’ in a heartless world
They come and go and you never know
It could be they’re just like me – yeah
They’re just like you and me

Are we the heartless people
Livin’ in a desperate world
We come and go and you never know
Can you see you’re just like me – yeah
They’re all like you and me

Came a young boy laughin’
skippin’ stones and ice cream cones
I thought I caught him tappin’ upon my door but then no more
He’s gone I’ve seen that boy before
He won’t be back no more
