Love is everything you said it was
Love is rain upon the roof at night
I'm just trying to write some words
Through the bars of a rhyme this time
Thinking back to when I was a child
I was trying to become someone
I can still remember road signs
Let's have a toast to the sulking boy

God guess some lives were made to be wasted
I've tried and I'm trying yes I truly hate it

Sing

Now the child is a young man
Everyday is like a rolling storm
And he's playing in a covers band
Does a Sunday in a clothing store
Won't you stay until sunrise
You could maybe help find my voice
Tell me everything is alright
We'll sing a song for the sulking boy

God guess some lives were made to be wasted
I've tried and I'm trying yes I truly hate it

Sing

The devil's in the detail
Life is the ship we sail
The devil's in the detail
Life is the ship we sail

Through the bars of a rhyme this time
Thinking back to when I was a child

Let's have a toast to the sulking boy
