Boy Blue

Where are you?

You never knew yourself well enough, ah

But she never knew you at all

And when she put you out on your own

It may have stolen your innocence

But not, no, not your soul

Tell me, where is little boy blue?

You'll find him standing always one step ahead, oh

First a little shy, a little boy blue, whoa

Wise blood runs warm and deep

On the street, kids walking

Just a kid walking

Just a kid

You send a letter with photographs, ah

I'll tuck them under my dreams

And if we wake up old beyond our years

Not quite as brave as we seem

It's just the pain that never disappears

Tell me, where is little boy blue?

You'll find him standing always one step ahead

First a little shy, a little boy blue, whoa

Wise blood runs warm and deep

On the street, kids walking

Just a kid walking

Just a kid

Where are you?

Where are you?

When she put you out on your own

It may have stolen your innocence

But not, no, not your soul

Tell me, where is little boy blue?

You'll find him standing always one step ahead

Dance a little, cry a little, boy blue, whoa

Wise blood runs warm and deep

On the street, kids walking

Just a kid walking

Just a kid walking

Just a kid

Where are you?

Where are you?

Where are you, boy blue?

Where are you?

You always find him one step ahead

You always find him one step ahead
