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
