Who's Grown Up Now

On this June morning,
I give you warning.
I might just fly away across the dawn.
I looked into my lover's eyes,
There I saw the sunrise.
There I saw the birth of something new.

And suddenly, I'm not the same little boy.
'Cause I can't see the people that I meet;
All I see is her...

Since the time she went away,
I just exist from day to day.
I can't live, I can't love without her near.
Sitting here in my darkened room,
Whistling through the velvet gloom.
Wondering what the hell I'm doing here.

For suddenly, I'm not the same little boy.
And I can't see the people that I meet;
All I see is her...

There's just me and my conscience now,
There's no-one to tell me why or how.
I fell away; it's time I must return.
We might recover what has been,
Turn all the pieces round again.
Change and rearrange, begin again.

And suddenly, I'm not the same little boy.
'Cause I can't see the people that I meet;
All I see is her...

On this June morning,
I give you warning.
I might just fly away across the dawn.
Since the time she went away,
I just exist from day to day.
I can't live, I can't love without her near.

For suddenly, I'm not the same little boy.
And I can't see the people that I meet;
All I see is her...
