KEVIN
Coleske Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Out in the rain
For a moment I felt the pain
When I heard, oh about the schoolboy
Who sadly became the victim of unfortunate fate

Wish I was there
Wish there was something I could do at the time
But it's always been like it
Man if only this or that
That could have been done
Things could have been different now

Kevin, oh Kevin your place is in Heaven your time on earth is complete now
No matter how hard we try to unfold still our questions, they linger on
On through these long, long sleepless nights
As long as we live
Memories of you won't ever fade

Tears have been cried
They were never meant to touch me inside
Till it all became real
Yes the day I passed those traffic lights
Saw a bunch of flowers tied to the post

Kevin, oh Kevin your place is in heaven your time on earth is complete now
No matter how hard we try to unfold still our questions
They linger on
On through these long, long sleepless nights
As long as we live
Memories of you won't ever fade

Kevin, oh Kevin your place is in heaven your time on earth is complete now
No matter how hard we try to unfold still our questions




They linger on
On through each night
