Always a Boy - Kiethevez

being a young boy

you think you understand

heading for the open spaces

ending up at the back of the line again

this is how your head makes you move

can you feel it now

try to understand the past

so unprepared for this

you can see it now

when you’re out there on you own

needing nothing or no one

chequered little greens

fade into the horizon

on such a clear day

you can see all the way

as it grows and ends when you dive in

to the cold one final time

can you feel it now

try to understand the past

so unprepared for this

you can see it now

when you’re out there on you own

needing nothing or no one

you need no one still when you’re old

solitude is all

so stay right here — tonight

can you feel it now

try to understand the past

so unprepared for this

you can see it now

when you’re out there on you own

needing nothing or no one
