lyrics

When I was a child
I talked like a child
I thought like a child
And I walked like a child
But now I'm a man
And I put away my childish things
Now I'm a man
And I put away my water wings
They are at the bottom of my drawer
They don't do me no good no more

These are the things we left behind
These are the things we left behind
We will never get them back
We will never get them back, no, no
All these of things we left behind

When I was a child
I lived like a child
I played like a child
And I lied like a child
But now I'm a man
And I've given up my childish ways
Now I'm a man
I'm done with all my childhood days
They are stored in my memory
They are there for all eternity

I'm done with my soldiers
And I'm done with my sled
I've put them all away
Hid them all under my bed

When I was a child
I cried like a child
I laughed like a child
And I hurt like a child
But now I'm a man
And I've learned to live with the pain
Now I'm a man
And I know it's best not complain
I keep my feelings locked up tight
I am adroit and I use no sleight
