Kid Things 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 seem like nothing at all
Kid things make it better than it was
Kid things seem 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 loving
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...
