no, i'm not the perfect boy
the boy that you once wish you had
i'm my own self and thats all i can be
if you don't like me well then thats too bad

i always knew before that i would never let you down
but it seems like now
now things have changed and i dont know
what i should do to make you proud
maybe theres more to life than this..

when i'm grown up and on my own
i'll always remember what you did for me back home
i may be far, but i'm not away
i'll still be that little boy that you once raised

mommy, don't be sad i'm okay
just know this, by the way
i'll send you letters everyday
i'm alright, i said i'm okay
someday i will be home

this is not goodbye i'll see you later
i'm having a great time so please don't cry
wipe those tears off your face now
i'll be home in no time untill then i'll miss you guys

this is not goodbye i'll see you later
i'm having a great time so please don't cry
wipe those tears off your face now
you wipe yours, and i'll wipe mine
untill then i'll miss you guys...
