Lyrics

Les and Ray

Nine years old and climbing out the house
Through a song played on piano
By my neighbors Les and Ray

I put my head up against the wall
To be closer to the music that they played

You were my oxygen
The thing that made me think I could escape
This is a "Thank You" song for Les and Ray

You were my batteries
The things that made me think I could escape
Here's a song for Les and —
Here's a song for Les and Ray
