Lyrics
In days long gone when I was a boy
I thought the world was going to be my toy
But maybe, it wasn't meant to be
Now regretting the prices I paid
Second guessing all the choices I made
Ohhh baby, did I do the right things?
Well I won't let those feelings let me down
I'll open my heart to the magic all around me
And I'll know how good it feels
To do the right things
The truth is now that I've come to see
Love is more than the birds and the bees
Now who'll save me?
And should I be saved?
So, here I sit, along with my prise
Now that you're gone I've got nowhere to hid
I can't tell you, that I did all the right things, oh no
Well I won't let those feelings let me down
I'll open my heart to the magic all around me
And I'll know how good it feels
To do the right things
Well I won't let those feelings let me down
I'll open my heart to the magic all around me
And I'll know how good it feels
To do the right things
