Boys Songtext
von Jars of Clay

Lesson one: Do not hide
Lesson two: There are right ways to fight
And if you have questions we can talk through the night

So you know who you are, and you know what you want
I′ve been where you're going, and it′s not that far
It's too far to walk, but you don't have to run
You′ll get there in time

Lesson three: You′re not alone
And since I saw you start breathing on your own
You can leave, you can run
This will still be your home

So you know who you are, and you know what you want
I've been where you′re going, and it's not that far
It′s too far to walk, but you don't have to run
You′ll get there in time
Get there in time


In time
To wonder where the days have gone
In time
To be old enough to wish that you were young
When good things are unraveling, bad things come undone
You weather love and loose your innocence

There will be liars, and thieves who take from you
Not to undermine the consequence but you are not what you do
When you need it most, I have a hundred reasons why I love you

So you know who you are, and you know what you want
I've been where you're going, and it′s not that far
It′s too far to walk, but you don't have to run
You′ll get there in time
So you know who you are, and you know what you want
I've been where you′re going, and it's not that far
It′s too far to walk, but you don't have to run
You'll get there in time
Get there in time

If you weather love and lose your innocence
Just remember, Lesson one...
