    LYRICS
    This boy wants to play
    There's no time left today
    It's a shame 'cause he has to go home
    This boy's got to work, got to sweat
    Just to pay what he gets to get left all alone
    But let's step outside
    Let's go for a ride just for a while
    No, we won't get caught
    Well, that's what I thought
    Until we cried
    I'm still here
    But it hasn't been easy
    I'm sure
    That you had your reasons
    I'm scared
    Of all this emotion
    For years I've been holding it down
    For years I've been holding it down
    This girl tries her best every day
    But it's all gone to waste
    'Cause there's no one around
    This girl-she can draw, she can paint
    Likes to dance, she can skate
    Now she don't make a sound
    We'll play in the park
    'Til it's too dark
    For us to see
    Well, we'll make our way home
    With mud on our clothes
    She won't be pleased
    I'm still here
    But it hasn't been easy
    I'm sure
    That you had your reasons
    I'm scared
    Of all this emotion
    For years I've been holding it down
    And I love to forgive and forget
    So, I'll try to put all this behind us
    Just know that my arms are wide open
    The older I get the more that I know
    Well, it's time to let this go
    I got to let it go
    I got to let it go
    I got to let it go
    I got to let it go
    I'm still here
    But it hasn't been easy
    I'm sure
    That you had your reasons
    I'm scared
    Of all this emotion
    For years I've been holding it down
    And I love to forgive and forget
    So, I'll try to put all this behind us
    Just know that my arms are wide open
    The older I get the more that I know
    And I love to forgive and forget
    So, I'll try to put all this behind us
    Just know that my arms are wide open
    The older I get the more that I know
    Well, it's time to let this go

    you changed so much for me. I love you more than I could ever express. I was bullied for liking your music in South Atlanta, and hearing you play my favorite song on earth shook me to my core. I hope to see you play live one day, even if it is just one song or just to hear your voice. you are the reason this young black girl from Atlanta chose not to end her life

    Wow, man. All these years later and still knocks it out of the park in a different key than the original. James Morrison is probably the most underrated artist of his generation.

      I could not agree more, he is very underrated, which is a shame.

    One of my all-time favourite JM songs, performed acoustically and to perfection here by this insanely talented singer/songwriter. I have recently seen James perform on his Greatest Hits Tour around the U.K. to coincide with the new album and every gig was very special. Having worked in the TV/entertainment industry myself for 18 years as a researcher at Carlton TV I have seen many great established singers/musicians perform but JM is consistently exceptional and the best I’ve seen in a live setting. If you’ve never seen him live I urge you to do so. He’ll not disappoint!

    @James Morrison, I'm so sorry to learn of you and your family's loss.... I pray for strength for you and your dear family in the days ahead. Before Thanksgiving last year, I lost my beloved Mother who never had a kidney transplant but was on dialysis & I took her to treatments 3 times/wk and was her caretaker essentially for all things. I thought we might have more time but two years and she was gone. Love and condolences to you and your family.
