Letra de «The Boy Inside Of Me»
When I was just a kid, I used to wonder all the time.
I had imagination and a very active mind.
I played a game called "Wonder If" and one called "Let's Pretend."
I had a pirate's treasure and a fortress to defend.
I made frequent visits to Venus and the Moon. I could be George Washington, John Wayne, or Daniel Boone. I never feared for anything, for I could always be Any man I wanted through the boy inside of me.
I had a stack of baseball cards and I had chicken pox. I had a red bicycle, a frog, and smelly socks. I had a praying mantis that I kept in a jar. I had a dog named Freckles got run over by a car.
I could be Dick Tracy in my Daddy's Sunday hat. I was Joe Palooka. I was this and that. I never feared for anything, for I could always be Any man I wanted through the boy inside of me.
Things slowly fell together. I grew into a man. I learned to live with politics and tie of foreign hands. I've taken on a family and payin' for a home And live life so my son can have a hero of his own.
And sometimes when this hero is required to show his stuff, He just calls on the stuff he learned while he was growin' up. So this hero owes it all, though humble it may be, The man I am resulted from the boy inside of me.
