these times

November 8th, 1997

listen to the mp3
i came here a simple boy
and i’m leaving about the same
but i’ve grown to love some things
that i thought i’d never tame

i used to sleep reluctantly
for i did not what to know
the things that lie ahead
but now I wait on tomorrow

for these times can change a man
God don’t let my ego out grow your hand
oh these times can change a man
so God don’t let my ego outgrow your hand

when i run to you hold me close
out of harms way
hold me tighter still tell me to stay
when i try to run away

(bridge)
this time has changed me
but God don’t let me live my life in captivity
this time has moved me but
right back there with you is where i long to be

I came here a simple boy
Just following your call
now i’m an individual
who can’t hear your voice at all
