The Boy Inside

Graeham Goble

Is your mother calling?
Did you hear the warning?
Are you satisfied you won’t run and hide?
Is your mother calling?

Can you sleep at night?
When you shut the light?
Do the curtains move, will you ever prove
You can sleep at night?

The boy inside wants to run away
There’s no time to go out and play
He won’t listen to a word you say
The boy inside

Can you stand the heat?
Could you take the street?
If you’re locked away for another day
Can you stand the heat?

Voices in the mirror
Are they getting nearer?
From inside your room, you will face it soon
It’s your mother calling

The boy inside wants to run away
There's no time to go out and play
He won't listen to a word you say
The boy inside

And he never asks for one thing in return
Only a better way
Just give it one more day
And he never looked for love he didn’t earn
Ready to go the distance
Knows it’ll make the difference

The boy inside wants to run away
There’s no time to go out and play
He won’t listen to a word you say
The boy inside

The boy inside wants to run away (there’s no time)
There’s no time to go out and play (he won’t listen)
He won’t listen to a word you say (the boy inside)
The boy inside wants to run away (there’s no time)
There’s no time to go out and play (he won’t listen)
He won’t listen to a word you say (the boy inside)
The boy inside wants to run away
There’s no time to go out and play (he won’t listen)
He won’t listen to a word you say (the boy inside)
The boy inside
