- This Boy LyricsThis boy wants to play
There's no time left today
It's a shame coz he has to go home
This boy's got to work, got to sweat
Just to pay what he gets to get left all alone
Let's step outside
Let's go for a ride just for a while
No we won't get caught
Well that's what I thought until we cried
I'm still here
But it hasn't been easy
I'm sure
That you had your reasons
I'm scared
Of all this emotion
For years I've been holding it down
For years I've been holding it down
This girl tries her best every day
But it's all gone to waste
Coz there's no one around
This girl she can draw she can paint
Likes to dance she can skate
Now she don't make a sound
We'll play in the park until it's too dark for us to see
Well we'll make our way home
With mud on our clothes
She won't be pleased
I'm still here
but it hasn't been easy
im sure
that you had your reasons
im scared
of all this emotion
for years i've been holding is down
And I'd love to forgive and forget
So I'll try to put all this behind us
Just know that my arms are wide open
The older I get the more than I know
Well it's time to let this go
I got to let it go
I got to let it go
I got to let it go
I got to let it go
I'm still here
but it hasn't been easy
im sure
that you had your reasons
im scared
of all this emotion
for years i've been holding is down
And I'd love to forgive and forget
So I'll try to put all this behind us
Just know that my arms are wide open
The older I get the more than I know
Well it's time to let this go
There's no time left today
It's a shame coz he has to go home
This boy's got to work, got to sweat
Just to pay what he gets to get left all alone
Let's step outside
Let's go for a ride just for a while
No we won't get caught
Well that's what I thought until we cried
I'm still here
But it hasn't been easy
I'm sure
That you had your reasons
I'm scared
Of all this emotion
For years I've been holding it down
For years I've been holding it down
This girl tries her best every day
But it's all gone to waste
Coz there's no one around
This girl she can draw she can paint
Likes to dance she can skate
Now she don't make a sound
We'll play in the park until it's too dark for us to see
Well we'll make our way home

I got to let it go
I got to let it go
I got to let it go
I got to let it go

Well it's time to let this go
