Not The Boy Next Door

Comin' home used to feel(my way is still) so good
 I'm a stranger now in my neighborhood
 I've seen the world at a faster pace
 And I'm comin' now from a diff'rent place
 Though I may look the same way to you
 Underneath there is somebody new
 I am not the boy next door
 I don't belong like I did before
 Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
 You can have your dreams, but you can't have me
 I can't go back there anymore
 'Cause I am not the boy next door
 You've been savin' (all) those souvenirs,
 Faded photographs from my(our) foolish years
 We made plans, but they're wearin' thin
 And they won't work out 'cause I don't(won't) fit in
 And those mem'ries will just weigh me down
 'Cause I got no place to keep 'em uptown
 I am not the boy next door
 I don't belong like I did before
 Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
 You can have your dreams, but you can't have me
 I can't go back there anymore
 'Cause I am not the boy next door
 And I'm sorry for just bein' me
 But if you'd look past the past you could see
 That
