John Budrevo - My Aimless Child Lyrics

You look so tired - you look so frail
So uninspired - why did I fail?
I paid for you in silver - I paid for you in gold
Now you don't have the nerve to tell me
That I was too bold...
What keeps hurtin' you - my aimless child?
What makes you so blue - my aimless child?
Too many people - have let you down
Too many people - have seen you frown
They make you their companion
And they see you in your prime
But then you give them trouble
And you curse them all the time
What keeps hurtin' you - my aimless child?
What makes you so blue - my aimless child?
My aimless child - so young and wild
Between a vision - and indecision
The days get shorter - the nights are cold
You roam the streets now - you're far too bold
You seem to look for answers
Where no single truth is found
You fancy you are somewhere
But there's no-one else around
What keeps hurtin' you - my aimless child?
What makes you so blue - my aimless child?
What keeps hurtin' you - my aimless child?
What makes you so blue - my aimless child?
