Hey Kid - Christopher Cross, Cross Christopher, Cross

Hey, kid, I’m talking to you

I got a couple things I’d like to say

The world’s a mess and there’s so much to do

And you’re the one who gets to save the day

Well, I hope you’ll do fine

Couldn’t do much worse than this generation of mine

We had the answers but forgot that line

That says love is all

Hey, kid, with my hair and my clothes

I bet you got some big dreams up your sleeve

Well, here’s a secret every old guy knows

Time goes by like you would not believe

So don’t wait;

make it real

Try to do some work that’ll help everybody heal

I don’t know much but the one thing I feel

Is that love is all

Love is all

Ah, ah, ah, ah

Go have your fun

I surely had my share

Ah, ah, ah, ah

But I’m not quite done

Look around and I might be there

With my cane and a song

So look sharp;

know the score

Don’t you let the man try to sell you another war

Give all you’ve got and then give some more

Because love is all

Ah, ah, ah, ah

Go have your fun

I surely had my share

Ah, ah, ah, ah

But I’m not quite done

Look around and I might be there

In the place I belong

Hey, kid, you’re no fool

I know that you don’t need to hear this from me

Now you’re the one who decides what’s cool

And it really doesn’t matter if I agree

So turn it up;

play it with style

Maybe learn a new chord once in a while

Practice your chops and practice your smile

And get up when you fall

And in the end, brother, please be kind

Don’t believe the hate creeping into your mind

Look inside every day and I hope what you find

Is that love is all

Love is all
