Lyrics
Story of a young boy
He?d lie awake at night as lovers kiss
He often heard his name
To be wanted was his wish
That vision haunts him now
It was his misunderstanding
Just a child with so much love to give
To a man who met a girl and stumbled
Into the life of a young boy
Rose colored glasses Fogging up faster
This young boy had fallen From heights that were callin?
While viewing the world Thru Rose Colored glasses
Knocking at the backdoor
someone that he knew but still a mystery
Breath against the glass
looking back at love with eyes of green
Standing on the page
of a story they once followed
reading every sentence ?til the end was clear
He was just a man who met a girl and stumbled
Into the life of a young boy
Rose colored glasses Fogging up faster
This young boy had fallen From heights that were callin?
While viewing the world Thru Rose Colored glasses
What was the boy to do
To have a daddy would be so cool
Trying hard to understand
Where he fit -- who is the man
