Kid Things Lyrics - Counting Crows

What's there that makes you want to be lonely? 

What's there to keep you sitting at home? 

He'd always say no, no, no 

As if he wanted you to be hungry 

Well, the same things you're missing 

Could get you into something else 

Better leave when to stay 

Is only nothing but being alone 

What I wanted you to know is kid things 

Seemed like nothing at all 

Kid things make it better than it was 

Kid things seemed like nothing at all 

But kid things make it better than it was 

Hey, what you got that makes you want to be lonely? 

Hey, what you got that makes it a better way to be? 

She said no, no, no 

I can't get any love and it's a Sunday 

I said oh, yeah 

What makes you think I wanted it that way? 

'Cause one or two more smiles from you 

And I don't need anything else 

What I wanted you to know is kid things 

Seemed like nothing at all 

Kid things make it better than it was 

We're just kids 

We spend all night on the phone 

It's a kid thing 

But I sleep better when I'm not alone 

What I want right now is just some more 

Gimme more, hey what you think 

Is you're not getting any younger 

What I know is that you're not really very old 

I know you wanna say no, no, no 

It feels much better in the summer 

Well, if it isn't warm where you're sittin' 

Then kitten come on in out of the cold 

'Cause all I know is when I'm with you 

Well, I don't need anything else 

What I wanted you to know is kid things 

Seemed like nothing at all 

And kid things make it better than it was 

We're just kids 

We spend all night on the phone 

It's a kid thing 

So I sleep better when I'm not alone 

Kid things seemed like nothing at all 

Kid things make it better than it was 

We're just kids, just like driving a car 

It's a kid thing and the further out 

The closer in you are
