[Verse 1]
I've fixed my dwelling for the night
Lights in pairs come passing by
Where I hide
I need some time now on my own
Leave my loneliness alone
To lick my wounds
Night has found me just in time
To help me close my eyes
One more time
[Chorus]
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale
For so many days
I'm living a boy's adventure tale
Can't escape if I wanted to
Living a boy's adventure tale
I may be dreaming but I feel awake
[Verse 2]
I've been lost in so many places
Seeking love in so many faces
A change of weather
The rain pours down
My head in hands
Pressed to the ground
And where am I supposed to go now?
[Chorus]
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale
Living a boy's adventure tale
A voice I hear
Living a boy's adventure tale
Singing a lullaby for me
[Outro]
Living a boy's adventure tale
Because of you
Living a boy's adventure tale
Oh, you know it's true
I'm living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
For so many days
I love you
I love you
So many ways
I've fixed my dwelling for the night
Lights in pairs come passing by
Where I hide
I need some time now on my own
Leave my loneliness alone
To lick my wounds
Night has found me just in time
To help me close my eyes
One more time
[Chorus]
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale
For so many days
I'm living a boy's adventure tale
Can't escape if I wanted to
Living a boy's adventure tale
I may be dreaming but I feel awake
[Verse 2]
I've been lost in so many places
Seeking love in so many faces
A change of weather
The rain pours down
My head in hands
Pressed to the ground
And where am I supposed to go now?
[Chorus]
Living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
Living a boy's adventure tale
Living a boy's adventure tale
A voice I hear
Living a boy's adventure tale
Singing a lullaby for me
[Outro]
Living a boy's adventure tale
Because of you
Living a boy's adventure tale
Oh, you know it's true
I'm living a boy's adventure tale
In so many ways
For so many days
I love you
I love you
