Schoolboy

I was just a schoolboy

I got no place to go

Spent the afternoons alone on my kitchen floor

Oh mommy's late from work

She's stopping at the store

Whoa-oh oh oh

Oh this is how it goes

She was just a schoolgirl

She thought she met a dream

Or so it seems so it seems

I spent some summer nights

Wrapped up in her backyard

Oh I was so in love

And then I fell apart

Oh when the room stood still

Oh when the room stood still

Make me up Make me up

Or else I could tell you why

Make me up Make me up

You're the reason I'm alive

This is how you remember me now

And just out the door is killing me

And it was all so hazy

Running 'round this river town

The time we spent was here

And it can drive me crazy

Thinking 'bout that schoolboy

And how he disappeared

Oh when the room stood still

Oh when the room stood still

Make me up Make me up

Or else I could tell you why

Make me up Make me up

You're the reason I'm alive

This is how you remember me now

And just out the door is killing me

All my secrets wrapped around this golden crown

And buried backwards behind my house

It's in the ground

And always wondered when

You'll come and dig it out

Oh no

Make me up Make me up oh

Make me up Make me up oh

This is how you remember me

Just out the door you're killing me

Make me up make me up

Oh I wish I could tell you why

Make me up Make me up

You're the reason I'm alive

This is how you remember me now

And just out the door is killing me

Make me up make me up

Make me up Make me up

This is how you remember me now

This is how you remember me now

Not now

I was just a schoolboy I got no eh
