When You Were A Boy You Were A Beautiful Boy lyrics - Deacon Blue

I want to love you

But everything is gonna to have to change

This cell's taught me

That everything can be chained

You read my letters

See all my cares

You see time passing

I see me and you will say

When you were a boy (you were a boy)

You were beautiful

When you were a boy (you were a boy)

You were beautiful

When you were a boy

I never thought you would be looking for such a girl

I'm going to love you

But things are going to be so strange

You'd better get ready

To make up your mind for your own way

I know December

But you say May

You'll say tomorrow

Nearly every day... and then you say
