Boy Inside the Man
So long, so long, so long he's been away
So long, so long, so long he's back again
When I turned 17
We had passion, we had dreams
Thought the love we were fighting for
Was something holy, something more
When I turned 21
We were outside on the run
When I walked out with my girl
We went halfway around the world (around the world)
And I, I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once, I knew she'd understand, understand
The boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
When I turned 25
We were hungry, we had drive
When I turned much older then
When the boy was lost in pride
Now I just turned 31
I have lost and I have won
Still I've kept my dreams alive
'Cause the boy will never die, never die, no
And I, I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once I knew she'd understand, understand
Boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
Ah, understand, understand
I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once I knew she'd understand, understand
I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once I knew she'd understand, understand
Boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
You're back again
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
Let him in, let him in
Boy inside the man
Let him in, let him in
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
You're back again
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
You're back again
Sister, cool this face
As if it's carved in stone
Don't you leave me in this place
Like a boy without a home
Like a boy without a home
So long, so long, so long he's back again
When I turned 17
We had passion, we had dreams
Thought the love we were fighting for
Was something holy, something more
When I turned 21
We were outside on the run
When I walked out with my girl
We went halfway around the world (around the world)
And I, I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once, I knew she'd understand, understand
The boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
When I turned 25
We were hungry, we had drive
When I turned much older then
When the boy was lost in pride
Now I just turned 31
I have lost and I have won
Still I've kept my dreams alive
'Cause the boy will never die, never die, no
And I, I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once I knew she'd understand, understand
Boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
Ah, understand, understand
I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once I knew she'd understand, understand
I dreamed I saw her standing there
Running for the boy inside the man
Hit hard by the light so bright, it burned
And all at once I knew she'd understand, understand
Boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
The boy inside the man
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
You're back again
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
Let him in, let him in
Boy inside the man
Let him in, let him in
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
You're back again
So long, so long, so long
You been away
So long, so long, so long
You're back again
Sister, cool this face
As if it's carved in stone
Don't you leave me in this place
Like a boy without a home
Like a boy without a home
