kayâs a young woman about 65
spends her life making fried chicken
in a restaurant in a small town in ohio or indiana
i donât know but i met her one day when my car broke down
cooking away and singing a song
something about sunshine on a rainy day
and a little boy playing on a swing somewhere
thinking about nothing
thinking about everything
laughing like a kid laughs
hey kay can you give me a smile
i sure could use a little hope today
hey kay is it gonna be all right
iâd sure like to feel like you
iâd sure like to see things the way you do
iâm so tired of running
running away
and i sat there staring at kay
thinking iâd rather die than grow old
cause iâll never learn to smile like her
iâll never be satisfied doing one thing
or doing anything for that matter
so i listen to men talk like boys
act like i understand what theyâre saying
i take directions from a stranger in the night
i drive on and on from town to town
and donât know where iâm going
i donât see any finish line
hey kay can you give me a smile
i sure could use a little hope today
hey kay is it gonna be all right
iâd sure like to feel like you
iâd sure like to see things the way you do
iâm so tired of running
running away
everywhere i go i see your face
a different smile or a different place
but itâs always the same
iâm driving down this long dark road tonight
i donât know where iâm going but itâs just as well
cause iâm just holding on to you tonight kay
iâm holding on
hey kay can you give me a smile
i sure could use a little hope today
hey kay is it gonna be all right
iâd sure like to feel like you
iâd sure like to see things the way you do
iâm so tired of running
running away
itâs gonna be all right
