I remember not too long ago

Batting base balls, boxin' with my shadow

Climbin' trees, climbin' walls

Yearned to be six feet tall



If I knew then what I know now

I would've been content to play

And not to rush my hand to take the plough



Oh Jesu-u-us, bring back the boy in me

Put your hand on my hear-eart

And let me run free

Woh-oh-woh Jesu-u-us, my eyes need help to see

And I want to be the boy in me-ee-yeah



I remember it like yesterday

I realise my childhood slipped away

Chasin' plans, chasin' dreams

Silhouettes of what I jused to be



And I know now what I knew then

Not living in the past

But I wish I could go back again



Oh Jesu-u-us, bring back the boy in me (bring back the boy in me)

Put your hand on my hear-eart

And let me run free

Woh-oh-woh Jesu-u-us (bring back the boy in me)

My eyes need help to see (bring back the boy in me)

And I want to be the boy in me



Oh Jesu-u-us, bring back the boy in me (bring back the boy in me)

Put your hand on my hear-eart

And let me run free

Woh-oh-woh Jesus (bring back the boy in me)

My eyes need help to see (bring back the boy in me)

And I want to be the boy in me (bring back the boy in me)

The boy in me (bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me)

(Bring back the boy in me) (fade)
