Jeffrey

Jeffrey ran away
Last seen with that boy around the corner
Hands upon his waist
Shaking too much 'fore he's dead he's on her
Jeffrey was a tired boy
Too much yelling going on to sleep
So they had one son less
Never knew the cut would be so deep
(Where did you go?)
Where did you go?
(Where did you go?)
Where did you go?
Face I've never seen
Shove my flesh and bone-oh my bone
Something moves in me
I can only hope you're not alone
Twenty winters gone now
Plenty more to come whatever we do
So I call you home, lift my voice
And pray that it will find you
(Where did you go?)
Where did you go?
(Where did you go?)
Where did you go?
Somewhere inside back of your mind
Seek and you'll find
(Where did you go?)
Where did you go?
(Where did you go?)
Where did you go?
