The lyrics of ‘The Boy I Was Yesterday’
“A long time ago there was time
to waste time
A moon was hiding
With the sun rising
That light that I swore
that would be forever
I am understanding the sentences
What did my old man say?
And each of your advice
Today they go deep
Deep inside of me
And today I am not even half
From the child I was yesterday
And I don’t want to forget
What I learned from him
teaches me to walk
And since I know how to run
I’m starting to suspect
that in no time will return
As a child I had powers
I climbed the walls
Always in the light
and in the dark
Remember well who you are
Life is a video game
And I’m passing levels
I would like to slow down
And now I remember friends
that go like the wind
And each of those moments
Today they go deep
Deep inside of me
And today I am not even half
From the child I was yesterday
And I don’t want to forget
What I learned from him
teaches me to walk
And since I know how to run
I’m starting to suspect
that in no time will return
long ago there was time
to waste time
And now I just listen
The noise of each concert”
