I Am Just a Little Boy

I am just a little boy
In a world of heartache and joy 
Then growing up and wondering why
Being just a little bit shy
And a young man thinking I know it all
Then being crushed in truth’s call
Now I am an older man
Knowing that life doesn’t go to plan
You see I’m just a little boy.
