[Verse 1]
It's the same mistake
That I keep on repeating
If I want my cake
Then why can't I stop eating?
If I can't decide exactly where I want to be
Then I think I might someone to lie some kindness on me

[Verse 2]
I'm haunted most
By all the same old problems
Just the same old ghosts
And all the same old goblins
Looking over my shoulders
Waiting to bring me to the ground
I don't know what I told her
I wish that I had not made a sound

[Chorus]
And every time I feel big I'm reminded who I am
Just a frightened boy with friends and toys
To keep my attention
And who am I to worry about money and my health?
To learn to love is growing up
And there is nothing else
[Verse 3]
It's no crime to steal a person's heart
It's just a waste of time
It tears us all apart
I haven't given much thought to victims of my own theft
Although I haven't been caught I'm serving my time none the less

[Chorus]
And every time I feel big I'm reminded who I am
Just a frightened boy with friends and toys
To keep my attention
And who am I to worry about money and my health?
To learn to love is growing up
And there is nothing else

[Bridge]
Some of history's greatest men
Have fail to clean up all the messes we've got ourselves in
I know it's just part of the plan
But I realise I need to be more like the man I was made to be
The man I was made to be

[Chorus]
And every time I feel big I'm reminded who I am
Just a frightened boy with friends and toys
To keep my attention
And who am I to worry about money and my health?
To learn to love is growing up
And there is nothing else
