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.
