"The Boy Feels Strange" lyrics

"The Boy Feels Strange"

He looks at me in wonder
Looks at me in fear
Wrestling with his anger
His pride and stony tears
To place me in his life
Will be hard and slow
Does he want it, need it?
I might never know

Boy feels strange
Oh... boy has changed

Looking from my tower
I can see his fortress strong
Surrounded by his army
Where do I belong?
Does he ever find the answers
In the cars as they go by?
Does he ever want to ask me why?

The boy feels strange
Oh... boy has changed

And he's seen with all the women
Who think that he's a god
And he blesses whom he pleases
Holding fast to the facade
I want to reach out and believe him
Through his miles and miles of pain
But lately when I touch him
Boy, that feels strange

And he speaks to me of business
When I ask him how he's been
Keeps me at a distance
Never getting under skin
Can he make a new beginning?
Does he even want to try?
Or will he only let it die?

The boy feels strange
Oh... the boy has changed

Mm
Mm
Oh
Oh
