lyrics

Heavy is the window frame
Rusty is the iron bolt
Heavy is the window frame

Heavy is the heart you leave
Frozen are the words you speak
Heavy is the heart you leave behind

Living on the run is not for boys
You know you better turn around
And come back home
Come back home
Come back home
You know you never should've left
You better come back home

What about the girl you left
What about her pretty face
What about the girl you left behind
Tell you buddies what you did
Tell them how you run away
Tell them how you never once looked back

Living on the run is not for boys
you know you better turn around
And come back home
Come back home
Come back home
You know you never should've left
You better come back home

I'll see you when the years have passed
I'll see you when i'm old and grey
I'll see you when the years have passed behind

Living on the run is not for boys
you know you better turn around
And come back home
Come back home
Come back home
You know you never should've left
You better come back home
