Can't Feel (1982)

by Kitty Brazelton & Joey Scarperia

This song is from the poppier midldle period in the Brazelton-Scarperia songwriting collaboration, after the duo had moved to New York. Most of these songs were studio creations, although they were realized live later by the band Hide the Babies.

Recorded at Carter Cathcart's studio on the upper East side, New Yor, 1985.

there goes the boy
I love
there goes the boy
I been dreamin of

he's the one with the
long hair
he's the one who
takes me there

there he goes

he gets his way with
all the other girls
he gets his trip paid
around the world

he's got a walk that
kills the floor
I start to want him
more and more

there he goes

there he goes

and I wonder
if he knows

he's the boy
that I adore
he's the boy

he's the boy
I'm waitin for
he's the boy

there goes the boy I love

every night I
tell my pillow
how much I need to
let him know

but every day I
hug the shadow
watch him come I
watch him go

there he goes

there he goes

and I wonder
if he knows

he's the boy
that I adore
he's the boy

he's the boy
I'm waitin for
he's the boy

he's the boy
that I adore
he's the boy

he's the boy
I'm waitin for
he's the boy

there goes the boy I love

hey girls
there goes the boy
I love

there goes the boy
I been dreamin of

he's the boy he's the boy
I love
