The wind blew a path through the fallen leaves
And there showed a crack in the old oak tree
The door stood as if it was standing guard
Of the dozen chipmunks in the backyard
Every house not a home but dare do I roam
There's a light on the porch here for someone
Once upon a time in a border town
The war was over, the guns laid down
The women, the men, the children say
Now it's hard to remember it any other way
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/neighbor-lyrics-band-of-horses.html ]
When the law acts as though there is nothing to show
There is compassion and depth in a neighbor
Now if Bartles & Jaymes didn't need no first names
We could live by our own laws in favor
Every house not a home but dare do I roam
There's a light on the porch here for someone
Now if Bartles & Jaymes didn't need no first names
We could live by our own laws in favor
