Seventh Key - The Kid Could Play Lyrics
Slippin' round town it was late on a Saturday nightMusic blastin' down the alleyway out into the neon skyWell, the Kid was rockin' with that gold top in his handsGot the place goin' crazyMoving to the music of the bandOh, such promise lay in waitingAll his life anticipatingPlayin' music was his one desireAll he wants to do is set the night on fireLivin' that dream out every dayEverybody knew that the kid could playEverybody knew the magic goin' on down thereLining up every nightPay the price to get their shareWord spreadin' round townLike wildfire out of controlHad the kid playing musicComing from the bottom of his soulOh, but promises were brokenAnd goodbyes were left unspokenPlayin' music was his one desireAll he wants to do is set the night on fireLivin' that dream out every dayEverybody knew that the kid could playThe kid could playIn the center of the bright spot lightPlaying his heart out every nightLiving that dream out every dayEverybody knew that the kid could playOh, the kid could playA loss of innocence that drove him to the fringeA final act of desperation in the endAnd I can still hear music borne upon the windPlayin' music was his one desireAll he wants to do is set the night on fireLivin' that dream out every dayEverybody knew that the kid could playThe kid could playIn the center of the bright spot lightPlaying his heart out every nightLiving his dream out in every wayEverybody knew that the kid could playThe kid could playOh, the kid could play
