Little Boy (Live - St Matthias)

Little boy

Your hair is such a mess

If only

I could warn you of the distress

Little boy

You’ll cry into your mother’s arm

Screaming “Why can’t I belong?”

And all she wants to do

Is to protect you from harm

If I knew then

What I know now

Would I have carried

All down the road?

Oh yeah, I’m told you’re only given

What you can hold

If I knew then

What I know now

I’d have let go long ago

Oh, what a life I would’ve missed on the road

Down the road

Little boy

Your dad’s side won’t understand

But maybe it’s a blessing

‘Cause you’ll fill that void

With the best of friends

Little boy

You look like you haven’t slept

Maybe it’s all the shit you eat

To cope with a life so unfair

If I knew then

What I know now

Would I have carried

All down the road?

Oh yeah, I’m told you’re only given

What you can hold

If I knew then

What I know now

I’d have let go long ago

Oh, what a life I’d miss

Down the road

Down the road

I’d have missed my whole life

I’d have missed my whole life

Down the road

Down the road
