Just a Boy

                                  The last days in may

Before summer lay claim

Back in the school yard

We made up a game

Now is always

Is always the same

Too bad always always ends



I remember

I remember when

But I was just

Just a boy

Then



Innocent envy

Without compromise

Recommendations

All ill advised

Tall tales

And little white lies

The truth had to bend



I remember

I remember when

But I was just

Just a boy

Then



Now that we're tall

And all grown

A house a car

Lives of our own

We put off

But we can't postpone

The way we become men



I remember

I remember when

But I was just

Just a boy

Then
