Michael Lyrics

on my way downtown to meet with a friend
walking briskly 'cross the old school yard when
i stopped and all the years come back to me
tingeling my spine
suddenly it hits me
what became of michael
you transferred to our school
you had no friends
on mondays your mother would join you
to help you out
oh michael i know we were so cruel? threw your clothes in the girls locker room
when you were showering
everybody watched when you took them back
naked and crying

michael
you transferred to our school
you had no friends on mondays your mother would join you
to help you out
oh michael i know we were so cruel
you know how kids can be

michael believe me i'm sorry (i never touched you or called you names)
that you you were not invited (just kept my mouth shut and looked away)
to our birthday parties (i would have helped if i've been more brave)
(i would have helped if i've been more brave)

and ever since your sad eyes they haunt me
oh michael where ever you may be now
i hope you forgive me
you know how kids can be
