Album: New Monkees
So long
so long
so long
he's been away
So long
so long
so long he's back again
I turned seventeen
We had passion we had dreams
Thought the love we were fighting for
Was something holy
something more
When I turned twenty-one
we were outside on the run
When I walked out with my girl
we went halfway 'round the world
Chorus:
I dreamed than I saw her standing there
running for the boy inside the man
I was hit hard by a light so bight it burned
All at once I knew she'd understand
understand
Boy inside the man
The boy inside he man
When I turned tweniy-five
we were hungry we had drive
When I turned much older then
When the boy was lost in pride
Now I just turned thirty-one
I have lost and I have won
Still I've kept my dreams alive
'cause this boy will never die
CHORUS I dreamed AH Do you understand
CHORUS
The boy inside the man
CHORUS I reamed
So long
so long
so long
you been away
So long
so long
so long
you're back again
Sister Cool this face
as if it's carved in stone
Don't leave m in his place
like a boy wihout a home (repeat)
Boy inside the man
