Leo's Song
When Leo was here
You never brought him flowers
You never cared where he was
In the darkest hours
Leo cried all of the time
Leo cried all of the time
Maybe he couldn't see the day
When God would give him peace of mind
Leo cried all of the time
Now Leo's gone
Everybody wants to know
Why was he so sad
We should never have let him go
Leo please come on home
Leo please come on home
We're sorry that we hurt you
We're sorry to the bone
Leo please come on home
But all the glassy tears
Of those he left behind
Washed all the memories clean
Of the ways they'd been unkind
Lord have mercy on their souls
Lord have mercy on our souls
We tried so hard to help him
He was a sad and lonely boy
Lord have mercy on our souls
Leo's got away now
He's never coming back
He smiles as he stares
Out along the railway track
Leo's never coming back
He is never coming back
He moved away from the people
Who never gave a damn
Leo is never coming back.
Sometimes you must escape from those
Who don't really care for you
Change your life, change your friends
Maybe change your family too
The whole world's waiting there for you
The whole world's waiting there for you
Take your life in your own hands
You'll find the love you never knew
The whole world's waiting there for you
You never brought him flowers
You never cared where he was
In the darkest hours
Leo cried all of the time
Leo cried all of the time
Maybe he couldn't see the day
When God would give him peace of mind
Leo cried all of the time
Now Leo's gone
Everybody wants to know
Why was he so sad
We should never have let him go
Leo please come on home
Leo please come on home
We're sorry that we hurt you
We're sorry to the bone
Leo please come on home
But all the glassy tears
Of those he left behind
Washed all the memories clean
Of the ways they'd been unkind
Lord have mercy on their souls
Lord have mercy on our souls
We tried so hard to help him
He was a sad and lonely boy
Lord have mercy on our souls
Leo's got away now
He's never coming back
He smiles as he stares
Out along the railway track
Leo's never coming back
He is never coming back
He moved away from the people
Who never gave a damn
Leo is never coming back.
Sometimes you must escape from those
Who don't really care for you
Change your life, change your friends
Maybe change your family too
The whole world's waiting there for you
The whole world's waiting there for you
Take your life in your own hands
You'll find the love you never knew
The whole world's waiting there for you
