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
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
I've been listening to this band with members compiled from both the Carolinas for a long time. They got famous in Seattle of all places, but have for years been living back home. This song "Neighbors" pretty much says it all from the WBTS to now! I have included the lyrics to make it easier to follow. Hope you enjoy.
