Letra de Neighbour Boy

The neighbour boy, he ran away, and came home, after a year and a day No one knows just why he was gone, if he was trying to make it on his own Being fifteen years old, you get pretty cold, when you're trying to find gold But I guess it's best not to wait too long, and leave before damage is done Well, it's harder the first time The first thing he did was buy a pretty suit He was trying to look good for you He bought you dinner, and man, he bought you drinks And you've been forever his, ever since And on your way home, by the side of the road You didn't see it coming, did you First, you only had eyes for the young And then, you found yourself staring at his gun Well, it's harder the first time The neighbour boy, he ran away, and came home, after a year and a day But he didn't bother to come in, 'cause he knew that he would never win The day he came home was a beautiful day But he said that he'd done wrong on his way He hung himself by the end of a rope Now, he's in Heaven, with his head hanging low.
