Adrian (Demo)

It cleared up Are you ready? (Yeah, it's recording) Oh Adrian came home again last summer Things just haven't been the same around here And people talk And people stare Oh, Adrian, come out and play An unfortunate accident in a canoe The doctor said, "I'm sorry not much I can do" And the air was so still And his eyes, they did not blink Oh, Adrian, come out and play Little Mary Epperson liked him And she vowed always to watch after him But still he did not move And the doctor said, "It's no use" Oh, Adrian, come out and play She stood by his side and watched the years fly by He looked so fragile, he looked so small And she wondered why he was still alive at all Everyone in town had that "I'm-so-sorry look" They talked in a whispered hush, said "I'd turn the machines off" But still she sat by his side She said, "Life, he won't be denied" Oh, Adrian, come out and play Yellow flowers decorate his bedroom A sign above his bed says, "Welcome Home" He just sits and stares He's awake but really not there Oh, Adrian, come out and play She stands by his side, and watched the years fly by She looked so fragile, he looked so small And he wondered why he was still alive at all Little Mary Epperson grew up lovely She still comes to visit him on Sundays He's like an unused toy He's got big hands but the mind of a little boy Adrian, come out and play Adrian came home again last summer Things just haven't been the same around here
