Tommy Prine - Boyhood

I'm with my brother in the woods on a hot July day
We got lost, on second thought we never knew the way
Mama said go play outside, cause suppers ready soon
We caught bugs found rocks and thought we might find the moon
I saw a creek that was 10 years wide and hoped to cross it soon
Now I did now were not kids and I think I wished too soon

Now my brother climbed a tree and yelled I ain't Comin down
When I tried to, my foot slipped a groove and I fell on the ground
I got back and brushed it off
It really wasn't all that bad
But I swear, falling through the air was the most fun I ever had

Daddy won't you come outside I feel lost today
He said son, yeah you ain't done, just look how far you came
You know that creek beyond the pines?
I've crossed it many times
And you will too, all you gotta do is give it some time
And when I'm done, you'll teach your son, how to swim it straight
Just find love inside your heart you'll never float away
Never float away
