about

Singing this song makes our hearts ache a little bit as our minds are inevitably drawn to someone we love who has lost their way. Clinging on to their youth just a little too tightly. Perhaps we all know a boy who has never made peace with adulthood? The life of the party and always the last to leave? It’s not only about those people, Lost Boy is also an ode to the young child within us all.

lyrics

Silver in the moon and silver in the bus stop glow
You’ve already had a few behind the Avenue Store.
When my mother told me don’t go out without your coat,
I should have listened to her, did you listen yours?

Boy I know you’re faking
You’re a lost boy in the making.
Running out on school,
Were you always so damn cool?
I can tell you’re floating
Like a feather on the skin of the sea
In only a wave you’ll be sinking with all the lost boys.
And are you feeling lost boy?

On a Saturday the winter had us on our knees
And you’d laugh at all the other kids who were
Going home early
Did you dream of being such a man when you were smaller?
Now there’s holes in your shoes and they’re taking on water.

Boy I know you’re faking
You’re a lost boy in the making.
Running out on school,
Were you always so damn cool?
I can tell you’re floating
Like a feather on the skin of the sea
In only a wave you’ll be sinking with all the lost boys.
And are you feeling lost boy?

Oh and all the lost boys
And are you feeling lost boy? (Repeat)
I can tell you’re floating like a feather on the skin of the sea
In only a wave you’ll be sinking with me
