Neighbor lady with your hair of gold
Tender hearted and a blameless soul
You took me places in your ugly old car
We'd play ball in the back of your yard
When I was troubled and I needed to talk
You'd grab your shoes and we'd go for a walk
We'd stroll the sidewalks around our 'hood
When we returned I always felt good
Neighbor lady you never knew
My first crush was a crush on you
Your hair so pretty in the bright sunlight
Body so sexy and lookin' so right
Your eyes as blue as the deep blue sea
You were kind when you spoke to me
I was just thirteen and too young you see
To know the difference 'tween the birds and the bees
Not that it mattered 'cause my mouth wasn't willing
To speak the things that my heart was feeling
Before I could tell you how I loved you so
You sold your house and you had to go
You drove off in a U-haul waving good-bye
I felt so lonesome and empty inside
You left me to deal with my feelings on my own
I felt abandoned and all alone
Neighbor lady you never knew
My first crush was a crush on you
Your hair so pretty in the bright sunlight
Body so sexy and looking so right
Your eyes as blue as the deep blue sea
You were kind when you spoke to me
