New Monkees - Burning Desire Lyrics

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
