Once there was a boy I knew
Whose eyes alone could light up the room
But he's gone now
Yeah he's gone now
Yeah he's gone
Once there was a boy I knew
Whose smile alone could tell you the truth
But he's gone now
Yeah he's gone now
Yeah he's gone
And all that's left is broken
A shadow of who he once was
Yes, he's barely breathing now
As he cowers in the dark
And all that's left is broken
A shadow of who he once was
When heartache takes its toll on you my dear
No, there's no turning back
Once there was a boy I knew
Whose eyes alone could light up the room
But he's gone now
Yeah he's gone now
Yeah he's gone
Once there was a boy I knew
Whose smile alone could tell you the truth
But he's gone now
Yeah he's gone now
Yeah he's gone
Once there was a boy I knew
