adrian came home again last summer
things just havent been the same around here
and people talk and people stare
oh
adrian
come out and play
an unfortunate accident in a canoe
doctor said
"im 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 "its no use"
oh
adrian
come out and play
she sat by his side and watched the years fly by
he looked so fragile
he looked so small
she wondered why he was still alive at all
everyone in town had that "im so sorry look"
they talked in a whispered hush
said "id turn the machines off"
but still she sat by his side
she said
"life he wont be denied"
oh adrian
come out and play
yellow flowers decorate his bedroom
sign above his door says welcome home
but he just sits and stares
hes awake but still not there
oh
adrian
come out and play
she sat by his side and watched the years fly by
he looked so fragile
he looked so small
she wondered why he was still alive at all
and little mary apperson grew up lovely
and she still comes to visit him on sundays
hes like an unused toy
hes got big hands but the mind of a little boy
oh
adrian
come out and play
adrian came home again last summer
things just havent been the same around here
