When I was a boy, I had a book in my eye A good head on my shoulders, but a thorn in my side I had it all figured out until I turned sixteen I gathered my thoughts, and I walked out the door I said bye to my mother, didn't need her anymore I was full of dreams, and sweet care to me when I left I had highs, I had lows, I didn't try anymore I grew out my hair, and I lied to them all I lived for the ups, but I died for the lows I'm singing, I never wanna grow old Hello old friend, it's good to see you again It's been so long since we first met I'd love to say that things haven't changed But you've moved on, and I'm still lost in Neverland But I'm no Peter Pan Well now I'm a poet, with a pen in my hand Just another last voyage, I am hard to understand why The kid in the mirror's got a beard, and a fear for this watch I tried asking the stars, how they lived in the dark They told me it's easy when you know who you are Well how do you do, I'm the boy that you thought you once knew I have highs, I have lows, I miss flying back home I love all my friends, but I hate when they go I tried growing up, but it just wouldn't work Singing, I never wanna grow old Hello old friend, it's good to see you again It's been so long since we first met I'd love to say that things haven't changed But you've moved on, and I'm still Hello old friend, it's good to see you again It's been so long since we first met I'd love to say that things haven't changed But you've moved on, and I'm still lost in Neverland But I'm no Peter Pan, lost in Neverland But I'm no Peter Pan But I'm no Peter Pan
