First Of The Gang To Die

You have never been in love,

Until you have seen the stars reflect in the

reservoirs

And you have never been in love,

Until you have seen the dawn rise, behind the

home for the blind

We are the pretty, petty thieves,

And you're standing on our streets

Where Hector was the

first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the first to do time, the first of the gang to die, Oh my.

Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the first to do time, the first of the gang to die, Oh my

You have never been in love, Until you've seen the sunlight thrown, Over smashed

human bone

We are the pretty, petty thieves, And you're standing on our streets

Where Hector was the

first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the first to do time, the first of the gang to die, Such a silly boy

Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the bullet in his gullet and the first lost lad to go under the sod

And he stole from the rich and the poor

and not very rich and the very poor.

And he stole our hearts away

He stole our hearts away, He stole our hearts away...
