Well, now I understand
And that's when I need you right there by my side
From child to man
And sometimes I know a man wouldn't understand
From child to man, oh yeah
From child to man
I've got a feelin' a whole new world is about to begin
When girls turn into ladies and a boy becomes a man
It's a caravan
And my mom and dad, they're about to kick me out the door
And what used to be fun is turning out to be a bore
And some things you told me, you know, they turned out to be true
It feels like a straight line from child to man
And my part-time job just doesn't make it anymore
To keep me satisfied
Father, I can see what you've been through
I see myself, I've got whiskers on my chin
And the road you took, well, it's the best that you could do
You said, "When a child get's lonely, it's no different than a man"
From child to man
Yeah, it sure looks like it's, it's childhood fears
