Rose Colored Glasses
[©2011 William Livesay]

The story of a young boy
He’d lie awake at night as lovers kiss
He often heard his name
To be wanted was his wish
The vision haunts him now
It was his misunderstanding
Just a child with so much love to give
To a man who met a girl and stumbled
Into the life of a young boy
Rose colored glasses fogging up faster
This young boy had fallen from heights that were callin’
While viewing the world through rose colored glasses
Knocking at the backdoor
Someone that he knew but still a mystery
His breath against the glass
Looking back at love with eyes of green
Standing on the page
Of a story that they followed
Reading every sentence ‘til the end was clear
He was just a man who met a girl and stumbled
Into the life of a young boy
Rose colored glasses fogging up faster
This young boy had fallen from heights that were callin’
While viewing the world through rose colored glasses
What was this boy to do?
To have a daddy would be so cool
He's trying hard to understand
Where he fit and who's the man
Rose colored glasses fogging up faster
This young boy had fallen from heights that were callin’
While viewing the world through rose colored glasses
Rose colored glasses
Rose colored glasses
