How I lost my boy How I lost my boy How I lost my boy How I lost my boy The king did not die He kept floating past my eyes And singing his songs Life was good now death's all wrong Cause you can't feel a thing No heart flutters in late spring You just drift and pray For sun-kissed golden days And I can't hold what's in my hand Don't do any good to say this isn't what I planned And little kids slide down on the steel park slides Little kids can't play with things that've died Sometimes all I want's one favorite song And two to three minutes don't seem so long And where's my mom, I wanna hold her tight She's so far away from crowded nights I'm going cuckoo cuckoo Well I'm going cuckoo cuckoo I'm going I said please stay You can see me, don't go away I can't see the landscape Please describe it's amarynthian haze It's odd where I am They're people, you're not like them They just look away For rain-quenched golden days My tears quenched five feet along And I can scream but cannot yawn And people gonna come and people gonna cry, we cry! We just hope it's worth the age we die Don't try to erase what you have done Put your favors in a mouth, and kiss it if it wants And where's my friend, I wanna hold him tight He's so far away from mountain light I'm going cuckoo cuckoo Well I'm going cuckoo cuckoo I'm going And I can't hold what's in my hand Don't do any good to say this isn't what I planned And little kids sliding down the steel park slides Little kids can't play with things that've died Sometimes all I want's one favorite song And two to three minutes don't seem very long And where's my mama, wanna hold her tight She's so far away from crowded nights I'm going cuckoo cuckoo Well I'm going cuckoo cuckoo I'm going
