Boys Songtext
von Talking to Turtles

Old boy, you′re haunted
Boy, you're aware
You didn′t get what you wanted
But you even know it's there

The memories didn't fade
You both under blankets ′til dawn
How his brother Mark and Jake
Two boys against the world
Two boys on the lawn
The window frame drilled in your hands
When you secretly crawled in his bed
You had no clue that your future me
Will live from a not fading memory

Old boys, your job was to wrestle
To make your man′s world glow
Why couldn't you just get into trouble
Like boys, boys, boys always do?


Your innocence didn′t fade
A teenage love with a teenage maid
But still there is your present me
That lives from a not fading memory
Sometimes you meet on the main street in cars
Or you cheers on a party
His wife's in his arms
Once you came close as no years passed by
He said "it didn′t fade
The memory of you and I"

Old boys, your job was to wrestle
To make your man's world glow
Why couldn′t you just get into trouble
Like boys, boys, boys always do?

Old boy, you're haunted
Boy, you're aware
You didn′t get what you wanted
But you even know it′s there
Old boy, you're haunted
Boy, you′re aware
You didn't get what you wanted
But you even know it′s there
Old boy, you're haunted
Boy, you′re aware
You didn't get what you wanted
But you even know it's there
But you even know it′s there
