Red Rider - Boy Inside the Man lyrics

So long so long so long he's been away So long so long so long he's back again When I turned seventeen We had pa**ion, we had dreams Thought the love we were fighting for Was something holy, something more When I turned twenty-one We were outside on the run When I walked out with my girl We went halfway around the world CHORUS I dreamed I saw her standing there Running for the boy inside the man I was hit hard by the light so bright it burned All at once I knew she'd understand Boy inside the man The boy inside the man When I turned twenty-five We were hungry, we had drive When I turned much older then When the boy was lost in pride Now I just turned thirty-one I have lost and I have won Still I've kept my dreams alive 'Cause the boy will never die CHORUS Ah do you understand CHORUS 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 Sister cool this face As if it's carved in stone Don't leave me in this place Like a boy without a home (repeat) Boy inside the man
