Someone to talk with

Broken string that could be tied together
Houses need paint that stand out there by the river
Once I knew a child back then
Who spent all day long in the kitchen
Holding hands
He had someone to talk with
Who brings the sunshine that keeps us warm
Who brings the rain that washes down the road
Someone who knows most of what you need
Before you lost it by yourself
When you can't believe
Trouble drops like a stone
Don't go sinking your tomorrows
Once I knew a child back then...
There's a snow melt stream that could stand up ??? toothpicks??
There's an innertube tire that's punctured and needs fixin
Someone who knows...
Trouble drops....
Once I knew...
He had someone to talk with
He had someone to talk with
