Intro

Verse

You've given me a home to sleep tonight

You've given my hope to stay alive

I scream at the top of my lungs

Just to get my way

And maybe someday I'll finish school

And be all the things you want me to

But for now I will travel the world

and see if it works

Prechorus

I can fight for myself but you need to know

Chorus

Baby, please

don't run away from me

I know that times are hard

And if you leave now, life will still go on

And I'll chase my dreams

But you will never see

That's why this song was made

Cause you need to know that I'm still the boy you loved

Verse 2

You've given me strength to be a man

Even when I could hardly stand

And now I feel that you need me

to do the same for you

Maybe some day I'll straighten up

But college was never quite enough

So for now I will travel the world and make it work

Prechorus

I can live on my own but you need to know

Chorus

Baby, please

don't run away from me

I know that times are hard

And if you leave now, life will still go on

And I'll chase my dreams

But you will never see

That's why this song was made

Cause you need to know that I'm still the boy you loved

Bridge

I know we are on our own

We're not kids anymore

We're not kids anymore

And I know that we're far from home

We're not kids anymore

we're not kids anymore
