"The Difference"

One, two boys by the river

Down by the water telling riddles in the dark

With fireflies under the moonlight

Carving the insides of a tree with a knife

Did you ever hear the one about the boy's big sister?

His best friend came along

And he tried to kiss her

The only difference that I see

Is you are exactly the same as you used to be

One boy lives in a tower

With bow and arrow and the artificial heart

With his girl

Maid of dishonor

They loaded the cannon with a jealous appetite

They say that children, now they come in all ages

But sometimes old men die with little boy faces

The only difference that I see

Is you are exactly the same as you used to be

You always said that you needed some

But you always had more, more than anyone

And the only difference that I see

Is you are exactly the same as you used to be
