Lyrics Poor Boy - Belle & Sebastian

Poor Boy

Poor boy, I could never live up to your imagination
Poor boy, I was a crush that killed

And dreams are real
When you’re asleep you may as well be dead

The last 10 years on figuring we’d meet
After the war
In some strange city on a stranger shore

To be your comfort when you needed me
Lady everlasting friendship
Poor boy, I could never live up to your imagination
Poor boy, I was a crush that killed
Poor boy, I could never live up to your hallucination
Poor boy, I was a crush that killed

I’d be a force
Not so polite and not so delicate
I’d trot around
On velvet socks so I could not be felt
I was your fan
Waiting for the day when this God will start to
