Kinkman
If I had the chance
To ask you to dance
Today, I wouldn't you know
'Cause my love was wrong
And it's taken this long
For me to finally know
I'm not the same fool I was
Ten years ago
I can't erase
The look of my face
When I was just seventeen
And if I could
It would do me no good
For my love was a dream
I never really loved you
Ten years ago
[Stop]
[Chorus]
Oh, I was just a loney boy (lonely boy)
Wishing for love (wishing for love)
Crying and pray-ing for something
That I had no clear concept of (uh-uuuv)
And you were the prettiest girl - I could imagine -
And I imagined it awwll (aww-all)
Ten - years a-gohhh
Now I understand
The test of a man
Is how he goes for his goals
I was reaching too high
Trying to fly
And running much too slow
I had no right to claim you
Ten years ago
I wish I'd known what I now know
Ten years ago
[Chorus]
Oh, I was just a lonely boy (lonely boy)
Wishing for love (wishing for love)
Crying and pray-ing for something
That I had no clear concept of (uh-uuuv)
And you were the pret-tee-est girl - I could imagine -
And I imagined it awwll (aww-all)
Ten - years a-gohhhhhh
