He used to live next door from me
A long time ago
An echo of hope is what he left
He took with him the rest
He sang those silent bells for me
That bounced against my bones
And shatter {sic} the walls and made them fall
But only I could hear
"Lunatic!"
They used to shout
From way, way above
"Lunatic!"
Oh yes, he was
In this world today
Across the walls he walked to see
If I would like to sing
I do admit I did sometimes
Go with him for a swim
(repeat 2x)
And you, my friend, will also call
Him those names again
But please remember this for me
He lived in you as well
A long time ago
An echo of hope is what he left
He took with him the rest
That bounced against my bones
And shatter {sic} the walls and made them fall
But only I could hear
They used to shout
From way, way above
"Lunatic!"
Oh yes, he was
In this world today
If I would like to sing
I do admit I did sometimes
Go with him for a swim
Him those names again
But please remember this for me
He lived in you as well
