Lyrics

This boy wants to play There's no time left today It's a shame coz he has to go home This boy's got to work, got to sweat Just to pay what he gets to get left all alone Let's step outside Let's go for a ride just for a while No we won't get caught Well that's what I thought until we cried I'm still here But it hasn't been easy I'm sure That you had your reasons I'm scared Of all this emotion For years I've been holding it down For years I've been holding it down This girl tries her best every day But it's all gone to waste Coz there's no one around This girl she can draw she can paint Likes to dance she can skate Now she don't make a sound We'll play in the park until it's too dark for us to see Well we'll make our way home With mud on our clothes She won't be pleased For years I've been holding it down And I'd love to forgive and forget So I'll try to put all this behind us Just know that my arms are wide open The older I get the more than I know Well it's time to let this go I got to let it go I got to let it go I got to let it go I got to let it go
