When I was a boy I didn't understand
Why encouragement was kind of hard to combine
To make a dream come true
Sometimes you gotta fight
I had to push myself to make a better life!
When the days were long, with nothing much to do
Should I tell myself that nothing could improve?
No, I had to try, and give myself a hand
I didn't know, the love was in my hands!

When I was a boy
Its just a matter of time
When I was a boy
Its just a matter of time

And now that Im a man, my tools are in the van
I wanna see the game on Sundays

And maybe check a friend!
Dont think about regrets, although I had a few
Falling in, falling out, dreams are falling through!
You see me going, get alone
When the nights are so long
I think about the days that were gone when I was young!

When I was a boy
I think about the days that were gone when I was young!
When I was a boy
Its just a matter of time
