Pale Imitation

Lyrics
Once I went back and I stayed on the street Where I used to live Got up in the morning Put on my boots and I crossed the road Stood in front of our house And went back to my tricycle times At the end of the terrace I looked up the alley And there he was A little blonde boy With a stick in his hands looking straight at me And if he wasn't me Then my god, he was just like I used to be We stared at each other But he stared me down and I looked away After a moment When I turned again he was gone I don't think I ever became half the man That I used to be The warrior captain The bold pirate king of the sea Nobody does me like I do Or that's what they say to me But I'm a pale imitation I've been keeping my secret safe with me
