Lyrics Kid Gloves - Fountains of Wayne

Kid Gloves

SheЂ™s wearing kid gloves
Will handle me carefully
Cause IЂ™ve got a history, cracked up and fragile
And bound to break easy
And if she could talk to me
What good would it do me
ItЂ™s no secret where IЂ™ve been and I have worn so thin
And she can see through me
Chorus 1:
I donЂ™t believe a word of it
CanЂ™t come around to her now that IЂ™ve heard of it
Now that her soft touch is gone
SheЂ™s got her kid gloves on
Here is what IЂ™ve found
New york just gets me down
When the going got tough, I got a bus ticket
Back to my home town
And all the way I dreamed
Flesh wrapped in velveteen
And the road wrapped around me, the long lonely highway
Gulped down by a greyhound
(chorus 1)
Chorus 2:
I donЂ™t believe a word of it
CanЂ™t come around to her now that IЂ™ve heard of it
WonЂ™t come around cause IЂ™ll only get hurt and it
Now that her soft touch is gone
How could she ever go on
Without her kid gloves on
