Lyrics
Boy Inside the Man, By Kenny Weill
You watched the world in wonder
How lightning called to thunder
Dinosaurs inside the clouds
Trying to make your mother proud
You knew what’s wrong and what’s right
Down from up and black from white
Now it seems everything’s gray
Adrift in a fog you’ve lost your way
Chorus:
Do you feel like your best days are behind you
As you struggle just to push through
Cuz the flame went out inside the man
You had no fear or self-doubt
Stood up straight and stuck your chin out
Daring the world to prove you wrong
Led the way and let the others tag along
Chorus:
Do you feel like your best days are behind you
As you struggle just to push through
Cuz the flame went out inside the man
The cynics and the fools they’ll misdirect you
Only you can resurrect you
And find the boy inside the man
Bridge:
Is there any joy that you can stand
Is there still a boy inside the man
Reality has swept away
Your ideals of yesterday
Holding on to what is true
Wondering what the child within would do
Chorus:
Do you feel like your best days are behind you
As you struggle just to push through
Cuz the flame went out inside the man
The cynics and the fools they’ll misdirect you
Only you can resurrect you
And find the boy inside the man
Yeah, find the boy inside the man
