Just A Boy

In the far past reaches of memory
Evening fell over the field
Sunlight streamed past the pastures
everything was still
but I couldn't understand this beauty
for I was just a boy
I was just a boy

I watched some old rowdies pull in
they began looking for a fight
with the young boy at the counter
desperados pulled a knife
I couldn't understand this mutiny
because I was just a boy
I was just a boy

(Bridge)
No one came staggering out the door
yelling out their tales of endless fear
someone must have died inside that store
as I stood there with my instincts standing near

One guy looked around for cover
while the other man grabbed the cash
I fought my fear with tears
fear I knew would last
I was afraid to tell my story
but I was just a boy
I was just a boy

I found it hard to escape the terror
there was so much on my mind
I grew up with my knowing
I should tell someone of that night
But I couldn't get you to believe me
Yes the boy will never die
I guess the boy will never die
oh and I was just a boy
oh I was just a boy

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.
