The Boy in Me Lyrics

Intro A Bm C#m D A E A D
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, yes.
I remember it like yesterday,
I realised 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.
Woah, oh, woah 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)
