Spider boy On slender legs so new The tilt of your head That don't mess with me look in your eyes Spider boy With your crystal eyes of blue A rasp in your voice Growing deeper as you become a man But your heart is a sadder kind And your heart is a sadder kind Spider boy You are your mother's son From the day of your birth Till you climbed from your shell And you were gone Spider boy There's no easy way to go I believe I'll forever and always Be calling your name And your heart is a sadder kind And your heart is a sadder kind I thought I saw you yesterday in a dream You had long flowing hair And your cheeks were rosy You were riding a motorcycle Dressed in white You were reciting poetry You were reading from the bible I saw your face so clear And I heard your voice completely You had that slight knowing smile You were trying to comfort me But my heart was a sadder kind And my heart is a sadder kind
