You sit there in your heartache
\nWaiting on some beautiful boy
\nTo save you from your old ways
\nYou play forgiveness
\nWatch him now, here he come<\/p>\n
He doesn\u2019t look a thing like Jesus
\nBut he talks like a gentleman
\nLike you imagined when you were young<\/p>\n
Can we climb this mountain – I don\u2019t know
\nHigher now than ever before
\nI know we can make it if we take it slow
\nLet\u2019s take it easy, easy now, watch it go<\/p>\n
We\u2019re burning down the highway skyline
\nOn the back of a hurricane that started turning
\nWhen you were young
\nWhen you were young<\/p>\n
And sometimes you close your eyes
\nAnd see the place where you used to live
\nWhen you were young<\/p>\n
They say the devils water it ain\u2019t so sweet
\nYou don\u2019t have to drink right now
\nBut you can dip your feet
\nEvery once in a little while<\/p>\n
You sit there in your heartache
\nWaiting on some beautiful boy to
\nTo save you from your old ways
\nYou play forgiveness
\nWatch him now, here he come<\/p>\n
He doesn\u2019t look a thing like Jesus
\nBut he talks like a gentleman
\nLike you imagined when you were young<\/p>\n
I said he doesn\u2019t look a thing like Jesus
\nHe doesn\u2019t look a thing like Jesus<\/p>\n
But more than you\u2019ll ever know<\/p>\n
