Spring Awakening - Left Behind Lyrics
You fold his hands, and smooth his tie., You gently lift his chin- Were you really so blind, and unkind to him?Can't help but itch, to touch, to kiss,To hold him once again. Now, to close his eyes, never open them...?A shadow passed, A shadow passed,Yearning, yearning for the fool it called a home.All things he never did are left behind; All the things his Mama wished he'd bare in mind;And all his Dad had hoped he'd know.Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, OhThe talks you never had, the Saturdays you never spent,All the "grown-up" places you never went;And all of the crying you wouldn't understand,you just let him cry-"Make a man out of him".A shadow passed, a shadow passed,Yearning, yearning for the fool it called a home.All the things he ever wished are left behind;All the things his Mama did to make him mind;And how his Dad had hoped he'd grow. All things he ever lived are left behind;All the fears that ever flickered through his mind;All the sadness that he'd come to own.Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh (2x)Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, OhA shadow past, a shadow past,Yearning, yearning for the fool it called a home.And, whistles through the ghosts still left behind...It whistles through the ghosts still left behind...It whistles through the ghosts still left behind...Oh, Oh
