Always a boy Lyrics

being a young boy
you think you understand
heading for the open s***es
ending up at the back of the line again
this is how your head makes you move
can you feel it now
try to understand the past
so unprepared for this
you can see it now
when you're out there on you own
needing nothing or no one

chequered little greens
fade into the horizon
on such a clear day
you can see all the way
as it grows and ends when you dive in
to the cold one final time
can you feel it now
try to understand the past
so unprepared for this
you can see it now
when you're out there on you own
needing nothing or no one
you need no one still when you're old
solitude is all
so stay right here - tonight

can you feel it now
try to understand the past
so unprepared for this
you can see it now
when you're out there on you own
needing nothing or no one
