dar williams - when i was a boy (acoustic revisited version) كلمات الأغنية
[verse 1]
i won’t forget when peter pan
came to my house, took my hand
i said i was a boy; i’m glad he didn’t check
i learned to fly, i learned to fight
i lived a whole life in one night
we saved each other’s lives out on the pirate deck
and i remember that night when
i’m leaving a late night with some friends
and i hear somebody tell me it’s not safe
someone should help me
i need to find a nice man to walk me home
when i was a boy
i scared the pants off of my mom
climbed what i could climb upon
and i don’t know how i survived
i guess i knew the tricks that all boys knew
and you can walk me home
but i was a boy too
[verse 2]
i was a kid that you would like
just a small boy on her bike
riding topless, yeah, i never cared who saw
my neighbor came outside to say
“get your shirt,” i said, “no way
it’s the last time i’m not breaking any law”
and now i’m in this clothing store
and the signs say less is more
more that’s tight means more to see
more for them, not more for me
that can’t help me climb a tree in ten seconds flat
when i was a boy
see that picture? that was me
grass_stained shirt and dusty knees
and i know things have gotta change
they got pills to sell
they got implants to put in
they got implants to remove
but i am not forgetting
that i was a boy too
[verse 3]
and like the woods where i would creep
it’s a secret i can keep
except when i’m tired
‘cept when i’m being caught off guard
and i’ve had a lonesome, awful day
the conversation finds its way
to catching fireflies out in the backyard
and, and so i tell the man i’m with
about the other life i lived
and i say, “now you’re top gun
i have lost and you have won”
and he says, “oh no, oh no, can’t you see?
when i was a girl
my mom and i we always talked
and i picked flowers everywhere that i walked
and i could always cry
now even when i’m alone i seldom do
and i have lost some kindness
but i was a girl too”
and you were just like me
and i was just like you
