Neighbour Lyrics by Abby J Hall

2020

VERSE 
Waking up put my headphones on 
All I ever hear is that familiar song 
Passing cars left to right 
Where're you going home tonight?
How do you, do I really care 
Would you even answer, would you dare?
Walk the line
Look a stranger in the eye
PRE-CHORUS
Everybody knows someone
Who knows someone 
Who knows someone
CHORUS 
We’re so busy mending fences 
Did we build them too high, too high?
There’s no time for second glances 
Tell me when will your eyes meet mine?
I’m not your friend but I’m not a stranger 
Could you trust me with your life
If I were your neighbour 
If I were your neighbour 
If I were your neighbour 
VERSE
Small talk about missing sleep 
Are we missing opportunity
To talk about what went down last week
Children crossing borders running in bare feet
We live in boxes in the sky
Neighbours surround us but who says hi
In the elevator you pass me by 
Do I pass your test or are we passing time 
PRE-CHORUS
Everybody knows someone
Who knows someone 
Who knows someone
CHORUS 
We’re so busy mending fences 
Did we build them too high, too high 
There’s no time for second glances 
Tell me when will your eyes meet mine
I’m not your friend but I’m not a stranger 
Could you trust me with your life
If I were your neighbour 
If I were your neighbour 
If I were your neighbour
BRIDGE
Tell me would you be some
Somebody who acts like they don’t notice
When I’m in the room
When you know I know you know me
Now the city never felt so lonely
Tell me would you be some
Somebody who acts like they don’t notice
When I’m in the room
When you know I know you know me
Now the country never felt so lonely
Mama told us not to trust no one
Our mama told us not to trust no one now
Nobody knows nobody nobody knows no one
Mama told us not to trust no one
Our mama told us not to trust no one now
Nobody knows nobody nobody knows nobody
Nobody knows, Nobody knows
CHORUS
We’re so busy mending fences 
Did we build them too high, too high 
There’s no time for second glances
Tell me when will your eyes meet mine
I’m not your friend but I’m not a stranger 
Could you trust me with your life
If I were your neighbour 
If I if I if I if I were your neighbour
If I were your neighbour (x4)
