If I seem like Peter Pan ‘cause I seldom act my age;
If I read a boring book and skip every other page;
If I can’t let go the dream that one day I’ll become a superstar.
If I don’t listen to advice and get lost along the way;
If I’m too busy playing life and forget the things you say;
Something you need to know.
Look beyond my eyes, in my soul you’ll clearly see,
Disguised behind the wrinkles, trying to break free;
The little boy who lives inside of me.
If I cry out for attention when hung-over or unwell;
If I’m told to keep a secret but I can’t resist to tell;
If my itchy feet keep calling me to go and explore some far of land.
If I make a naughty joke about something I shouldn’t say;
If I need to hear ‘I love you’ each and every single day;
Something you need to know.
Look beyond my eyes, in my soul you’ll clearly see,
Disguised behind the wrinkles, trying to break free;
The little boy who lives inside of me.
I was younger, now I’m older, I was younger, now I’m wiser.
What would life be, without the little me to keep me company?
If I need too much and I give too little;
If I don’t like taking sides and end up right in the middle;
If I still get scared by the anger of two grown-ups in a fight.
If I shed too many tears in the sad part of the movie;
If I break your little heart and forget to say “I’m sorry”;
Something you need to know.
Look beyond my eyes, in my soul you’ll clearly see,
Disguised behind the wrinkles, trying to break free;
The little boy who lives inside of me.
The little boy who lives inside of me.
