Kyle

You were standing outside the bus stop I drove past in a brand new Range And then suddenly it hit me, I flashed back and I saw your face It's too late, I can't pull over now And if I did, what would I say? It's been 25 years since school, about 18 since you left the estate And I know that life's not treating you great 'Cause I heard from a, well, I don't want to say mutual, mate But he walked past you outside the Asda You were sat on the floor and he asked you If you wanted anything and you just said, "I'm alright" Kyle I know it's been a while I know you're in denial But my pockets, they don't hold the change The change you really need I pulled up to a nice warm house and I felt so guilty Should I turn back round? Why do I feel so guilty? Wasn't my fault, we were both born with the same blueprint In the same streets, in the same town, in the same size house Look around, and you soon think Why me, not you? And why you, not them? 'Cause a couple didn't get past 18 And a few we know are doing time again So swings and roundabouts, tell me what's your whereabouts 'Cause I still want to help you out Kyle I know it's been a while I know you're in denial But my pockets, they don't hold the change The change you really need I walked in and I sat on the sofa Grabbed the laptop, plugged in the microphone And that's pretty much where I am now Sunday and I'm all alone But I know she'll be back soon, and I know that she loves me And I'll tell her about this, and she'll know why it bugs me And she'll say that I've got a big heart And you can't help everybody, Jonny don't blame you It's been 25 years or more, so you're basically a stranger And you never saw me, so you don't know what you're missing But I'll find you and buy you a coffee and just listen Kyle I know it's been a while I know you're in denial But my pockets, they don't hold the change The change you really need Kyle I know its been a while I know you're in denial But my pockets, they don't hold the change The change you really need lies deep in you The change you really need lies deep in you
