Marc Almond - A Man lyrics

I really must stop always being the child Chasing his youth his heart, nose to the wind I really must cure my tender nostalgia Bury deep my stars beneath the veil of night I must postpone my spanish ch Dreams that befuddle like an old wine I must also give up those sunny states To become a man And when that day comes You will forgive me, you won't be surprised When i show my teeth, when i show my bite Then i will be a man And i will stand tall I really must share my cla**es with others So my youth can pa** at last, so i forget I really must scrape my nails on my heart That my life hardens with sorrow and pain I must upset my guardian angels Who soothed me too much And when that day comes You won't be annoyed If i scratch a bit, if i practice being....so savage! You will forgive me, you won't be surprised When i show my teeth, when i show my bite Then i will be a man And i will stand tall And you will be prepared to find before you Someone who's like you, a wolf among the wolves Then i will be a man And i will stand tall And you will be prepared to find before you Someone who's like you, i'll be a wolf among the wolves Then i will be a man And i will stand tall Then i will be a man And i will stand tall
