Well ever since I started breathing I’ve had a fear of growing old I’ve always loved the feeling Of losing all control But I’m not a teenage boy no more I should be going home So pour me one more drink Before I stumble down the road
Visiting girl I was gonna marry She was the girl behind the bar And the baby that she carried Is why I play guitar Good I’m not a teenage boy no more Who gambles with her heart She gives me one more chance I keep on taking it too far
Daredevil when you gonna wake up And shine She ain’t always gonna love a boy like that It’s a matter of time When you sober up Good luck, she’s already saying goodbye Daredevil when you gonna wake up And realise It’s the devil in you puts the tears in her eyes
Well it seems I’ve got a problem I’m prepared to risk it all I keep on climbing up a mountain Just to see how hard I fall And every time I open up [?] I’ve been told And where she’s building bridges Yeah I’m only building walls
Daredevil when you gonna wake up And shine She ain’t always gonna love a boy like that It’s a matter of time Before you sober up Good luck, she’s already saying goodbye Daredevil when you gonna wake up And realise It’s the devil in you that puts them tears in her eyes Yeah in her eyes
She gives me one more chance And I lay that chance to waste Well hallelujah to the girl Who can forgive my foolish ways Cause I’m not a teenage boy no more This moss up on this stone She holds on to the ties And not take the chance to roam
Daredevil when you gonna wake up And shine She ain’t always gonna love a boy like that It’s a matter of time Before you sober up Good luck, she’s already saying goodbye Daredevil when you gonna wake up And realise It’s the devil in you that puts them tears in her eyes
