Lyrics

Dirty Kid

Written by: Kenny Webb

Verse 1

I was the dirty kid
Nobody wanted to play with
I spent a lot of time alone
You were my only friend
When I couldn't understand
Why everybody had to be so mean
You took me by the hand
And You believed in me

Chorus

And I believed in You
When no-one else could see
My imaginary friend
Thats what they said You had to be
But You were so much more
Than the world could comprehend
You were my dearest friend
You loved me even when
I was the dirty kid

Verse 2

I used to bite my tongue
When all the kids laughed and poked fun
At me and my ragged clothes
Lord if they'd only known
That You were here by my side
Would they have seen me in a different light
Or would they still deny
And crucify us one more time

Chorus

And I believed in You
When no-one else could see
My imaginary friend
Thats what they said You had to be
But You were so much more
Than the world could comprehend
You were my dearest friend
You loved me even when
I was the dirty kid

Bridge

Now I've cleaned up the outside
And You've cleansed me from within
My sins were washed as white as snow
But I still remember when

Chorus/Tag

I believed in You
How I wish the world would see
My imaginary friend
Thats what they say You have to be
But Lord You're so much more
Than the world could comprehend
You are my dearest friend
You loved me even when
You are my dearest friend
You'll be there till the end
You are my dearest friend
You loved me even when
I was the dirty kid
