About the song

This is my girl next door / home town song. Katrina was blonde and Melinda was a brunette - I haven't seen them since I was 16. She was my best friend as a little boy. We used to play out back in a very large gully from morning until night. So the song is really about the street on which I grew up.

Lyrics

Song Title: Of a Kind Words & Music by: Rick Denzien I see the bags underneath your eyes Like a seer you see true and wise When you were very young you tried so hard But crawling down the street your soul got marred Nobody else could see you Chorus: There was a dragon’s head – and a little boy’s sled And a big ravine – and the prettiest girl I ever seen Just remember if your soul gets lost Given up what’s left behind Holding on like you were the one of a kind A shadow cast near the stream you go Any more than this you’ll never know And even when you stayed up every night Nothing ever could make it true or right Nobody else could free you Chorus 2: There was a dragon’s head – and a little boy’s sled And a big ravine – and the prettiest girl I ever seen Just remember if your soul gets lost Given up what’s left behind Holding on like you were the one of a kind Bridge: I know I want you - but I know I can’t have you so, I leave it all behind Always reaching out for the things I cannot see, cannot touch, cannot find – so, never, never mind I see the bags underneath your eyes Like a seer you see true and wise When you were very young you tried so hard But crawling down the street your soul got marred - yeah Chorus 3: There was a dragon’s head – and a little boy’s sled And a big ravine – and the prettiest girl I ever seen Just remember if your soul gets lost Given up what’s left behind Holding on like you were the one of a kind © MM to date, Rick Denzien / Slot 1 Entertainment, Inc., (ASCAP) all rights reserved.
