Kinks - Going Solo Lyrics
She left a message after the tone,I hear it over and over on the answer phone.No one can find her, address unknown.She just decided to go out and make it alone.Solo, solo,My little child is going solo.Solo, solo,My little child is going solo.I feel like crying, Im in a rage.I cant understand why she just ran away.What made it happen, guess well never know.She just decided to go out and make it solo.Solo, solo, solo, solo, solo.We work like dogs all of our lives,Like millions of other husbands and wives.Sent her through college, didnt care what we spent.Think of how we feel,She didnt say, she didnt ask, she just went.Solo, solo,My little child, youre going solo.Its like a pattern, its like a crime,We see it happen time after time.You raise your children, you watch them grow,Then one day its good-bye, theyve decided theyre going solo.Solo, solo, solo, solo, solo.The toys are forgotten, now it appears,Youve let them down after all of these years.Sacrificed all, now theres nothing to show,Ungrateful youth, decided youre going solo.Solo, solo,My little child, youre going solo.Solo, solo,Ungrateful youth, youre going solo.The obligations, all of the ties,Have got to be broken so you can survive.Just because they gave you life, they cant stop if you grow,Now they cant hold you back cause youre going solo
