R.E.M.

(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)

If you hear this, look again
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a shadow to this boy

A penny on it's side
Write a letter, give a call
Let me know you're alive

And doing well
A quarter past three
The quarter you live in haunts my eyes
I'm hand over head
I'm held over hand
I'm hand over head over heels over you

Write a letter, give a call
Let me know you're alive
And doing well
It's everything for two
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a shadow to this boy

A quarter past three
A quarter past
The quarter you live in haunts my eyes
I'm hand over head
I'm held over hand
I'm hand over head over heels over you, you, you

Write a letter, give a call
Let me know you're alive
And doing well
It's everything for two
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a shadow to this boy

I'll give you a kiss
I'll give you a hug
I'll tell you a secret that's no lie
Don't be a stranger
Don't be a shadow
Don't be a shadow to this boy
Don't be a shadow to this boy
Don't be a shadow to this boy

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
