What Do You Want The Boy To Do?
From Home Plate, Bonnie Raitt
So you think the man is crazy?
He eats up your lies
Like theyre good for him.
Apple pie - he dont even cry.
Hes not a fool -
Hes just tryin to do what his heart says to,
To love you.
As you take to the wind,
(to the wind again my friend)
As he breaks down within,
(within, within within)
he waits for you patiently
Hoping that one day youll see
That all he really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone eternally.
(What do you want the boy to do?
Dont you see youre breaking the child in two.
What do you want the boy to do?)
All he really wants is you.
He knows what you are
Still hell be your king.
(Say the word today)
You know better.
Build your world around him
Now and then you promise
All the way-out things
that youre going to give to him
(You will see
you will be
So damn glad that you finally found him.)
(Free the boy) * best guess
As he watches you come and go
(for your soul) * best guess
As he watches your promises erode
(erode, erode, erode)
he waits for you patiently
Hoping that one day youll see
That all he really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone eternally.
(What do you want the boy to do?
Dont you see youre breaking the child in two.
What do you want the boy to do?
Dont you see that youre breaking the child in two.
What do you want the boy to do?
Dont you see that youre breaking the child in two.
What do you want the boy to do?
Dont you see that youre breaking the child in two.)
