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 passion, 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
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
