Oh little boys, don't watch to closely
I'm nearly twenty-one but I'm still young
Still learning how to be a good man
Don't think that journey will ever be done
Girls may come and go but we won't hold a funeral
Not everyone is worth dying for
I've broken hearts and they've broke mine
Now I'm a bruised up boat sitting on the shore
Not meant for sailing, sailing no more
Oh little girl, let me protect you
There's plenty men out there who live a lie
Don't fall into the arms of the first one who charms you
He'll come soon just wait a little while
Cause I thought I was better than I was
A heart of gold and good intentions
But I was weak and welcomed in the sin
Now who I am hates who I've been
Oh my darling, you are innocent
I worry for my children
Cause I'm afraid of me
Will I rise up to the occasion
Will my heart be tuned for thee
Cause my desires are in their interest
But my actions fill this room
With their wild and outrageous explanations
My heart knows not what my hands may do
So I pray
Please make me a man that bears your name
And let me not go wandering
But stay right here
I'll stay right here
