Neil Diamond - That Kind lyrics
[Neil Diamond - That Kind lyrics]
She was only seventeen
And was every young boys dream
The blue-eyed beauty queen of the day
Broke some hearts, including mine
But everyone knew she was just that kind
Seems like all her dreams were spent
On the boys that came and went
But the promises were all they left behind
She was good, and she was mine
But everyone knew she was just that kind
Hey they say:
"We're gonna take her out to Hollywood
Gonna make her like a movie star
Maybe put her in a picture show"
Took her chance she paid her dime
And maybe I loved her
'Cause she was that kind
She was gone by twenty-one
When most lives have just begun
There was so much left undone along the way
She took her chance she paid her dime
Oh you gotta be strong to be that kind
Yeah they said:
"We're gonna take her out to Hollywood
Gonna make you like a movie star
We gonna put you in a picture show"
Wasted life waste of time
But I couldn't of loved her
If she wasn't that kind
No I couldn't of loved her
If she wasn't that kind
And was every young boys dream
The blue-eyed beauty queen of the day
Broke some hearts, including mine
But everyone knew she was just that kind
Seems like all her dreams were spent
On the boys that came and went
But the promises were all they left behind
She was good, and she was mine
But everyone knew she was just that kind
Hey they say:
"We're gonna take her out to Hollywood
Gonna make her like a movie star
Maybe put her in a picture show"
Took her chance she paid her dime
And maybe I loved her
'Cause she was that kind
She was gone by twenty-one
When most lives have just begun
There was so much left undone along the way
She took her chance she paid her dime
Oh you gotta be strong to be that kind
Yeah they said:
"We're gonna take her out to Hollywood
Gonna make you like a movie star
We gonna put you in a picture show"
Wasted life waste of time
But I couldn't of loved her
If she wasn't that kind
No I couldn't of loved her
If she wasn't that kind
