Oh little boy you are alone, but you don't understand That you can't become a man on your own What you need might be a girl to see the other half of the world Then you can be a man just like me The more you grow, the less you're gonna need me But the heart will break, and being a man's not easy, easy, believe me Days are short, some days are long but they come and go so fast And love won't always last but love is strong Brother don't be afraid if the sky is dark and grey A light will shine always for you and me The more you grow, the less you're gonna need me But the heart will break, and being a man's not easy, easy, believe me
