Not the Boy Next Door Songtext
von Glee Cast

Comin′ home used to feel so good
I'm a stranger now in my neighborhood
I′ve seen the world at a faster pace
And I'm comin' now from a diff′rent place

Though I may look the same way to you
Underneath there is somebody new

I am not the boy next door
I don′t belong like I did before
Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, but you can′t have me
Oh, I can't come back there anymore
′Cause I am not the boy next door

You've been savin′ those souvenirs,
Faded photographs from our foolish years
We made plans, but they're wearin' thin
And they don′t work out ′cause I don't fit in


And those mem′ries will just weigh me down
'Cause I got no place to keep ′em uptown

I am not the boy next door
I don't belong like I did before
Nothin′ ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, but you can't have me
Oh, I can't go back there anymore
′Cause I am not the boy next door, huh!

I′m not sorry for just bein' me
But if you′d look past the past you could see
That I am not...

Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, oh, but you can′t have me
I can't go back there anymore
′Cause I am not (You are not)
I am not (You are not)
I am not the boy next door
