Boy – lyrics

Boy

Boy, you’re lovely as the morning
Lovely as a rosebud
Just about to bloom
Boy, your heyday is now dawning
Light is creeping in now,
Filling up the room

Wish I could capture you forever; wish I could capture you forever
Wish I could capture you forever as you are
Wish I could capture you forever; wish I could capture you forever
Wish I could capture you forever as you are

As you are growing tall, keep the fragrance
Keep the joy
As you become a man, keep the beauty
Of the boy

Boy, the world can stain your water
Be careful what you carry
Strive to keep your own
Boy, I cannot be your shelter
I’ll only walk beside you
As you journey on

Wish I could capture you forever; wish I could capture you forever
Wish I could capture you forever as you are
Wish I could capture you forever; wish I could capture you forever
Wish I could capture you forever as you are

As you are growing tall, keep the fragrance
Keep the joy
As you become a man, keep the beauty
Of the boy

Wish I could capture you forever; wish I could capture you forever
Wish I could capture you forever as you are
Wish I could capture you forever; wish I could capture you forever
Wish I could capture you forever as you are
