  • she was a boy, it wasn't easy for her
    i was a child to see it
    she came alone to build her story
    i was so young and loved her

    go on you'll see
    all that you want to be
    while everybody's saying
    hold on, you'll see
    you’ll never be free
    but we just kept on growing

    she was a boy with some feelings for me
    i was too wild and missed it
    i came alone to hear her story
    while no one else was worried

    go on she said
    or else you will grow sad
    while everybody doubted
    hold on, they say
    one day you’ll have to pay 
    but i was so afraid to go

    hold on you're scared
    you only need to dare
    while everybody's laughing
    go on, you'll see
    one day you'll be free
    and you will understand why

    she was a boy, she was a boy, she was a boy
    hiding in herself but
    she was a boy, she was a boy
    she knew that everyone was saying it

    how much you want to see

    how much you want to be
    how much you want to live, see her growing
    how much you want to see
    how much you want to be
    how much you want to live feel like falling
    how much you want to see
    how much you want to be
    wishing everyday you could see her face again
    how much you want to give
    how much you want to live
    she was a boy

    she was a boy
    but she was there for me
    i was a child and
    she was a boy Writer/s: DAVID DONATIEN, YAEL NAÏM
