Kid Myself Lyrics

We were young, we were wild It was fun on the run for a while But you grew up girl when I shoulda I wouldn't be kickin' myself if I woulda Gotten outta the bars, outta the scene Gave you my heart and everything in between Just like you deserved, sorry I couldn't give You a ring and a house with a dog and a couple of kids But I was just a kid myself I was just a kid myself Didn't know better than to wish you well Baby if you never could tell I ain't proud of how it all went down If I could, I'd take it all back now I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't wishin' you were missin' me like hell But I don't wanna kid myself I don't wanna kid myself I know I was wrong to think I was right Taking the easy road after the fight I should've stayed girl for what it was worth I bet this you and me young love thing would've worked But I was just a kid myself I was just a kid myself Didn't know better than to wish you well Baby if you never could tell I ain't proud of how it all went down If I could, I'd take it all back now I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't wishin' you were missin' me like hell But I don't wanna kid myself No I don't wanna kid myself No I don't wanna kid myself Thinkin' the last kiss wasn't the last You probably would've called by now If you ever wanted this boy back But I don't wanna kid myself Girl I was just a kid myself Didn't know better than to wish you well Baby if you never could tell I ain't proud of how it all went down If I could, I'd take it all back now I'd be lyin' if I said I wasn't wishin' you were missin' me like hell But I don't wanna kid myself No I don't wanna kid myself Girl I was just a kid myself I don't wanna kid myself

Meaning of Kid Myself

“Kid Myself” is a poignant reflection on lost love and youthful naiveté, delivered with raw emotion by John Morgan. The song’s core theme centers around regret – specifically, the artist acknowledging he was simply too young and inexperienced to truly understand or nurture a relationship. He laments missed opportunities, wishing he'd prioritized his partner’s happiness instead of clinging to a misguided sense of self-sufficiency. The repeated refrain, “I was just a kid myself,” underscores this central point: an admission of ignorance and a yearning for a different path. It’s filled with sorrowful honesty as he admits he isn’t proud of the outcome and wishes he could rewind time, recognizing his youthful mistakes. Ultimately, Morgan expresses a painful acceptance that he can't change the past, acknowledging he still harbors unspoken feelings and desperately hopes she might consider returning him to her.
