Lyrics

"A Boy Like Me"
(words and music by Richard A. Cosey)


You must have been standing there when Michelangelo raised his hand to paint
Quietly inspiring his every move, every stroke that made him great
Drawing on love from the inside out
Discovering his colors on the way
Making magic from portraits and landscapes we see everyday

I was only lonely for a little while when you came and recued me
I was enamored by the way in which you never gave up on what you could plainly see
Opening up my eyes to a wider horizon
That is shaped by a force unexplained
Leaving me counting those things that I haven't been losing as gain.

I don't think you know
I don't think you get it
I don't think you know the changes you've made
I don't think you know
I don't think you see it
The likelihood that you and I and fate could agree
What would the chances be?

For a boy like me
For a boy like me
For a boy like me
To find a girl like you
No no no-no no no no no no no no no no no etc

It's time to make choices and stop letting choices make you
Not be afraid to crusade and be ready to stay
On the path that you've laid.

I don't think you know
I don't think you get it
I don't think you know the changes you've made
I don't think you know
I don't think you see it
The likelihood that you and I and fate would agree
What would those chances be?

For a boy like me
For a boy like me
For a boy like me
To find a girl
Find a girl like you

No no no-no no no no no no no no no no no etc

















great energy, pretty good mix and instrumentation. like the harmony vocal line. interesting structure.

reminds me of an early simon and garfunkel.

Love the way you channel Stephen Stills and early CSN&Y. Rockin acoustic work and great harmonies.
