Autumn Boy

歌詞

-- AUTUMN BOY (lyrics and music: Stabbins/Booth) AUTUMN BOY STANDING IN THE SUNDAY RAIN, CLIMBS A HILL, WATCHES STARLINGS FLYING HOME AGAIN. AUTUMN BOY GOT WINTER IN HIS EYES, BUT THERE'S LOVE UNDERNEATH THAT COLD BLUE SKY. WATCH THAT BOY, 'CAUSE HE'S BURNING UP INSIDE, HE'S SEEN HIS TOWN FADE AWAY AND SLOWLY DIE. ONCE THAT BOY TRIED TO HITCH A RIDE, LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND, FORGET THE PAIN INSIDE. IT'S NOT THAT HE'S GROWING OLD, OR FEELING THE CHANGE, HE WANTS TO KICK IT ALL DOWN, AND BUILD IT UP AGAIN. (Instrumental) HE LOOKS AT HIS FATHERS'S HANDS, ALL DUSTY AND GREY, HE LOOKS AT HIS MOTHER'S EYES THAT HIDE FROM THE DAY. AUTUMN BOY… (instrumental) AUTUMN BOY WANTS TO READ EVERY BOOK IN SIGHT WANTS TO RUN SO FAST, WANTS TO TOUCH EVERY SHAFT OF LIGHT. AUTUMN BOY IS NOBODY'S FOOL, BECAUSE WHEN WINTER COMES THAT BOY WILL STILL LOVE YOU. --
