Lyrics

[00:18.72] You have never been in love,
[00:23.56] Until you've seen the stars,
[00:27.57] reflect in the resevoirs
[00:32.71] And you have never been in love,
[00:37.84] Until you've seen the dawn rise,
[00:41.76] behind the home for the blind
[00:45.42] We are the pretty petty thieves,
[00:54.46] And you're standing on our street..
[00:58.48] ...where Hector was the first of the gang
[01:01.99] with a gun in his hand
[01:03.76] and the first to do time
[01:05.96] the first of the gang to die. Oh my.
[01:12.96] Where Hector was the first of the gang
[01:16.11] with a gun in his hand
[01:18.05] and the first to do time
[01:20.19] the first of the gang to die.
[01:22.37] Oh My.
[01:24.56] You have never been in love,
[01:34.99] Until you've seen the sunlight thrown
[01:39.06] over smashed human bones
[01:42.21] We are the pretty petty thieves,
[01:51.24] And you're standing on our street..
[01:55.36] ...where Hector was the first of the gang
[01:58.87] with a gun in his hand
[02:00.69] and the first to do time
[02:02.96] the first of the gang to die. Such a silly boy.
[02:10.01] Hector was the first of the gang
[02:13.26] with a gun in his hand
[02:14.83] and a bullet in his gullet
[02:16.96] the first last lad to go under the sod.
[02:39.51] And he stole from the rich and the poor
[02:41.84] and the not-very-rich and the very poor
[02:45.56] and he stole all hearts away
[02:49.27] he stole all hearts away
[02:52.77] he stole all hearts away
[02:59.85] he stole all hearts away
