When I see your face in the mirrors of my eyes   It makes me wonder why I let you go   Cause the memory pain cools me down inside   It's a feeling that I hope you'll never know      Every boy is on his own in these uneasy times   I'll sing a song that rhymes with all my feelings   How can I be sure that what I'm livin' ain't a lie   Lord I'm gonna try to understand      Girl I miss ya now, my heart inside just cries   My feelings I despise down to my frame   But it seems the way my life's been meant to be   I sure do hope you see you're not to blame      Every boy must choose between his comforts and the road   Stop and take the load upon his shoulders   How can I be sure that what I'm livin' ain't a lie   Lord I'm gonna try to understand   Mmm, yes I will      When I see your face in the mirrors of my eyes   It makes me wonder why I let you go   Cause the memory pain cools me down inside   It's a feeling that I hope you'll never know      Every boy is on his own in these uneasy times   I'll sing a song that rhymes with all my feelings   How can I be sure that what I'm livin' ain't a lie   Lord I'm gonna try to understand
