Reach Out Richard

[Verse 1]

Richard hello, I know it’s 4am on New Year’s Day

I never made it home last night, alright

I'm minor so they dropped the charge and I’ll be out today

I know that that won’t make it right

It’s never black and white but

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Richard, you taught me all I need to know

But there’s some things you can’t prepare for

All I ever want to do

Is be as good a man as you

[Chorus]

So don’t you be concerned, the kid’s alright

I’ve got to live and learn

The kid’s alright

I know that you will see

The kid’s alright

I’ll find my way eventually

[Verse 2]

Richard your tears fall on the wheel as you wipe them away

I’ve never seen you so far gone along

The snow is tumbling as you're wondering what you didn’t say

When I’m the one who got it wrong

I try to keep you calm, cause

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Richard you showed me what was wrong or right

But now I gotta live my own life

I will fall along the way

But I’ll remember what you said

[Chorus]

So don’t you be concerned, the kid’s alright

I’ve got to live and learn

The kid’s alright

I know that you will see

The kid’s alright

I’ll find my way eventually

[Bridge]

Woah woah

Reach out Richard

Woah woah

Reach out

Woah woah

Reach out Richard

Woah woah

Reach out

I know you see yourself inside my eyes

Oh-oh reach out

Richard don’t worry cause the kid’s alright

Oh-oh reach out

I gotta live and learn

[Pre-Chorus 3]

Richard you barely made it out of school

Well look at everything you’ve been through

Apples fall right from the tree

As long as you are here for me

[Chorus]

So don’t you be concerned, the kid’s alright

I’ve got to live and learn

The kid’s alright

I know that you will see

The kid’s alright

I’ll find my way eventually

[Chorus]

So don’t you be concerned, the kid’s alright

I’ve got to live and learn

The kid’s alright

I know that you will see

The kid’s alright

I’ll find my way eventually

[Outro]

The kid’s alright

The kid’s alright
