The Boy in Me

I remember not too long ago

Batting base balls, boxin' with my shadow

Climbin' trees, climbin' walls

Yearned to be six feet tall.



If I knew then what I know now

I would've been content to play

And not to rush my hand to take the plough

Oh Jesus, bring back the boy in me.



Put your hand on my heart

And let me run free

Woh-oh-woh Jesus, my eyes need help to see

And I want to be the boy in me, yeah.



I remember it like yesterday

I realise my childhood slipped away

Chasin' plans, chasin' dreams

Silhouettes of what I used to be.



And I know now what I knew then

Not living in the past

But I wish I could go back again

Oh Jesus, bring back the boy in me (bring back the boy in me.)



Put your hand on my heart

And let me run free

Woh, oh, woh Jesus (bring back the boy in me)

My eyes need help to see (bring back the boy in me)

And I want to be the boy in me.



Oh Jesus, bring back the boy in me (bring back the boy in me)

Put your hand on my heart

And let me run free

Woh, oh, woh Jesus (bring back the boy in me)

My eyes need help to see (bring back the boy in me)

And I want to be the boy in me (bring back the boy in me)

The boy in me (bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me...)
