I walked alone to the top of a mountain
I swam across all the seas in the land
I walked a long, lonely road to the basement
I left myself and my love in the sand

So in love, won't dare to love
And I've never felt like this before
But I'm not afraid, not afraid, not afraid
Nothing to fear, not a care in the world in L.A

Little girl paints the doors of the big white church in her town
Curses God 'cause her demons won't rest 'til she's found
And she dances slow, sold her soul to the fountain of youth
Doesn't love me, but she cries just to prove that she do
And I watched from a distance
I saw with my whole heart
And all I encountered
Gave me all I could need

I left a lone lonely boy in the bed that I left in L.A. (in L.A.)
Just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, give him space
I left a cold-hearted boy in the bed in L.A
That I left him to lay in
Just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, I need space
I left a cold-hearted boy in the bed in L.A
That I left him to lay in
I left a lonely, lonely boy in the bed in L.A
(Nothing to fear, not a care in the world in L.A)
I left a cold-hearted boy in the bed in L.A
That I left him to lay in
(Just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, give him space)
And I dream of you when I wake on an island alone and I pray
(I left a lone, lonely boy in the bed that I left in L.A)
I left a cold-hearted boy in the bed in L.A
Where I lay
(Just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, just a boy I need space)
I left a cold-hearted boy in the bed
(I left a lone, lonely boy in the bed that I left in L.A)
I think of you when I wake on an island alone and I pray
All that I do when I wake is I dream of you all through the day
(Just a boy, just a boy, just a boy, just a boy I need space)
All through the day, day
All through the day, day
All that I do when I wake is I dream of you all through the day
All through the day, day
All through the day, day
All that I do when I wake is I dream of you all through the day
