When I Was a Boy — текст песни (Dar Williams)

Words and music by dar williams



I wont forget when peter pan came to my house, took my hand

I said I was a boy; Im glad he didnt check.



I learned to fly, I learned to fight

I lived a whole life in one night

We saved each others lives out on the pirates deck.

And I remember that night

When Im leaving a late night with some friends

And I hear somebody tell me its not safe, someone should help me

I need to find a nice man to walk me home.

When I was a boy, I scared the pants off of my mom,

Climbed what I could climb upon

And I dont know how I survived,

I guess I knew the tricks that all boys knew.

And you can walk me home, but I was a boy, too.
