-----
Forgive me, Peter
My lost fearless leader
In closets like cedar
Preserved from when
we were just kids
Is it somethin' I did?
The goddess of timing
Once found us beguiling
She said she was trying
Peter, was she lying?
My ribs
get the feeling she did
And I didn't
wanna come down
I thought it was just
goodbye for now
You said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Words from the
mouths of babes
Promises oceans deep
But never to keep
Oh, never to keep
Are you still
a mind reader?
A natural
scene stealer?
I've heard great things,
Peter
But life was always
easier on you
Than it was on me
And sometimes it gets me
When crossing your
jet stream
We both did the
best we could do
Underneath the same moon
In different galaxies
And I didn't
wanna hang around
We said it was
just goodbye for now
You said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Words from the mouths
of babes
Promises oceans deep
But never to keep
Never to keep
And I won't confess
that I waited,
but I let the lamp burn
As the men masqueraded,
I hoped you'd return
With your feet on the ground,
tell me all that you'd learned
'Cause love's never lost
when perspective is earned
And you said
you'd come and get me,
but you were twenty-five
And the shelf life of
those fantasies has expired
Lost to the "Lost Boys"
chapter of your life
Forgive me, Peter,
please know that I tried
To hold on (Hold on)
to the days (To the days)
When you were mine
But the woman
who sits by the window
Has turned out the light
You said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
You said you
were gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
You said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Said you were
gonna grow up
Then you were
gonna come find me
Words from the
mouths of babes
Promises oceans deep
But never to keep
