This boy

This boy wants to play,
There´s no time left today,
It´s a shame ´cause he has to go home.
This boy´s got to work
Got to sweat just to pay what he gets to get left all alone.
Well let´s step outside,
Let´s go for a ride,
Just for a while.
No we won´t get caught,
Well that´s what I thought, until we cry.
Chorus
I´m still here,
But it hasn´t been easy,
I´m sure that you had your reasons,
I´m scared for this emotion,
For years I´ve been holding it down,
For years I´ve been holding it down.
This girl tries her best everyday,
But it´s all gone to waste ´cause there´s no one around,
This girl she can draw she can paint,
Likes to dance she can skate,
Now she don´t make a sound.
We?ll play in our park,
´Till it´s too dark for us to see
Well we´ll make our way home,
With mud on our clothes,
She won´t be pleased.
Chorus
I´m still here,
But it hasn´t been easy,
I´m sure that you had your reasons,
I´m scared for this emotion,
For years I´ve been holding it down,
And I,
Love to forgive and forget,
So I,
Try to put all this behind us,
Just,
Know that my arms are wide open,
The older I get, the more that I know.
Well it´s time to let this go.
I got to let it go
I got to let it go
I got to let it go
I got to let it go
Chorus
I´m still here,
But it hasn´ been easy,
I´m sure that you had your reasons,
I´m scared for this emotion,
For years I´ve been holding it down,
And I,
Love to forgive and forget,
So I,
Try to put all this behind us,
Just,
Know that my arms are wide open,
The older I get, the more that I know.
And I,
Love to forgive and forget,
So I,
Try to put all this behind us,
Just,
Know that my arms are wide open,
The older I get, the more that I know.
There´s no time left today,
It´s a shame ´cause he has to go home.
This boy´s got to work
Got to sweat just to pay what he gets to get left all alone.
Well let´s step outside,
Let´s go for a ride,
Just for a while.
No we won´t get caught,
Well that´s what I thought, until we cry.

For years I´ve been holding it down.
