| I once loved a boy so smart and true
|
| We would walk home every day from the school
|
| He’d say, «I think we could walk forever
|
| Oh no, how 'bout just a little while?» |
| Okay
|
| He would make me laugh like the devil, haha
|
| He would pick me up like the child that I was
|
| In my time I’d like to stay young forever
|
| Like a tide, the crest beneath sunny weather
|
| May we fill these lungs with laughter (haha)
|
| And we may shake these bones with style (watch me now)
|
| And may we claim all that we’re after (everything)
|
| And may we do it wearing a smile
|
| And may the breath we breathe be free
|
| And for you to remain a part of me
|
| Three, four
|
| I have loved many faces, many places
|
| All aboard my train but depart at different stations
|
| And some of them look the same
|
| But none of them smell the same
|
| And some of them will never change
|
| While some of them are growing strange
|
| And some of them are center stage
|
| While some of them go and turn my page
|
| And some are
|
| And some are diseased with rage
|
| Oh, but all of them are aboard my train
|
| But all of them are a friend of mine
|
| And oh, my darling, can’t you see?
|
| Oh that, babe, oh, and you, are a part of me |
