She Was A Boy

Yael Naim She Was A Boy Lyrics
1.Come Home

I'm flying far away to be really free
Tired hard to build myself independently
It's hard to always do what you expect from me
Saying come home, come home

I try to understand why it hurts you
To see a difference in our points of view
Don't blame me for a thing that I didn't do
Saying come home, come home

It's insane how feeling so much shame will only bring you pain
And I no longer know how to explain
See I'm happy as can be and you're my family, my ground
And I'm just hoping one day I will find you

You're holding back the tears when you kiss me
Smile smile when I'm back again as you see me
When years are passing by and you miss me
You're saying come home, come home

Such a shame, you're feeling so much blame
And yet I'm still the same and I no longer know how to explain
See I'm grateful as can be 'cause you're my family, I'm bound
And I'm just hoping one day you will shine through

Let's try to look at each other, find one other
Asking how can it be fighting out all that we see
Is just not always what is real

That you come home, come home, just come home, come home
My turn to understand what you lived through
Today I only feel how I miss you so it's only fair when it's
hard to bare
And you ask if I, I try to come home, come home


2.My Dreams

You'll never say it's true
You want it all for you
Inside you know you do
And I've been locked inside
But help me understand
You say you want my hand
You wanted to be friends
But now I understand

You only wanted my dreams
But now I understand
You only wanted my dreams
For yourself for yourself

You told me how to pray
You said that I won't play
You wanted me to stay
And I'm still blind to see
How you are playing with my fears
But you create my tears
But only I have to use
It's now I understand

You only wanted my dreams
But now I understand
You only wanted my dreams

If somehow, I should dive
Will you have a wonder why?
I am real but you can't feel
All that you araise and kill
I will fly away from here
All you took will disappear
Was it my dream?

You said you want my land
And I cannot pretend
It's time for me to stay
You're hard as it can't be
I'm ready now to see
I'm going to be free
'Cause now I understand

You only wanted my dreams
But now I understand
You only wanted my dreams

You said you want my hand
But I cannot pretend
It's time for me to stay
You're hard as it can't be
I'm ready now to see
I'm going to be free


3.She Was A Boy

she was a boy, it wasn't easy for her
I was a child to see it
she came alone to build her story
I was so young and loved her

go on you'll see
all that you want to be
while everybody's saying
hold on, you'll see
you'll never be free
but we just kept on growing

she was a boy with some feelings for me
I was too wild and missed it
I came alone to hear her story
while no one else was worried

go on she said
or else you will grow said
while everybody doubted
hold on, they say
one day you'll have to pay
but i was so afraid to go

hold on you're scared
you only need to dare
while everybody's laughing

go on, you'll see
one day you'll be free
and you will understand why

she was a boy, she was a boy, she was a boy
hiding in herself but
she was a boy, she was a boy
she knew that everyone was saying it

how much you want to see
how much you want to be
how much you want to live, see her growing
how much you want to see
how much you want to be
how much you want to live feel like falling
how much you want to see
how much you want to be
wishing everyday you could see her face again
how much you want to give
how much you want to live
she was a boy

she was a boy
but she was there for me
i was a child and
she was a boy


4.Go To The River

When you feel ashamed go to the river
When you're feeling sad go to the river
When you're feeling blue inside, immersed and tied
When you're feeling stuck in pain, forever

Go go go go go tonight, you
Sigh and sigh inside you long for
More, more of the life you had be
Fore fore fore, let the seasons
Arrive and dive let the winter snow and
Glow glow when the wind will blow just
Flow flow, eventually you will know

When you're feeling bad, go to the river
When you're feeling mad, go to the river
When you feel it blows your mind, cause you can't find
When you feel you're going blind, you can't deny I say

Go go go with the river flow you
Hide hide hide but the river gets wide dont
Row, row, with everything you
Know , know, know, all you've carried inside
Side side, let the water unwind don't
Fight, fight the river is right let
Go, go, eventually you will grow

When you feel you'll lose your mind they'll let you slide
When you feel you go insane they let you die

Go go the river will know
Blow blow, the river will blow
Go go ,the wind will sigh
Blow blow the leaves can die
Go go the seeds will grow
Blow blow, the river will slow
Go go the years go by
Blow blow, with the river go

Go go go go in your soul you
Try to fly but never get high you're
Low low wishing for the
Tide to rise hold your feelings inside
Side side side let the river glide and
Slow slow, the winter will go you
Know know know with everything you'll grow
Whatever comes will go

Go go go down the river below you
Sigh sigh sigh and the years go by and
So , so, the leaves will fall but
More more more, you wanted even more just
Go go go with the river flow, you
Can't decide cause the river gets wild you
Know, know that there's no goal no
Sign , sign
Eventually you will find


5.Never Change

Sometimes i'm tired
Of hurting then promising each time
I say i'm sorry
But things will never change this way

Some things will never change this time
Some things will be the same from time to time
Don't be afraid to stay by my side
Some things will never change your mind

Oh i've started to lose just a bit every time
Oh i've tried to be good and be kind
I try to give you some space to be
But all i do makes you run away from me

Some say i'm crazy
But i think i'm lazy, sometimes
But somethings will never change unless i find
That thing that makes you change your mind

Some things will never change this time
Some things will be the same from time to time
Don't be afraid to stay by my side
Some things will never change your mind

While signs and stars above you seem to remind you
When everything inside you keeps on haunting you
Why everything around you seems to touch you
It's like every thing is wrong

Some things will never change this time
I'll never be the same from time to time
Don't be afraid to stay by my side
'cause some things might always change with time

Mmm...
Don't be afraid to stay by my side
Some things might always change with time


6.I Try Hard

i try hard to spread
my wings you better
look real high above
all things you gotta
stay together,
make things better
i try hard to learn
new things you better
work real hard,
on your fears instead
of fighting together,
work together
try to see the reasons
why you sacrifice
and lie the reason
we continue to deny
i only hear you say
the answer is to pray
but what if God
himself is lost today
but all i can see
is our longing to belong
in we're all alone afraid
of the other side
the other side
now that i have spread
my wings now
i don't want to fly
away from here
i want to stay forever,
make things better
i try hard to learn
new things you better
work real hard on your beliefs
instead of fighting together,
work together
try the reason why
you take the reason
why you fake the reason
you ignore all your mistakes
you say what's right
or wrong and feeling
you belong you separate
yourself and think
you're strong
but all i can see
is our longing to belong
in we're all alone afraid
of the other side
the other side
i try hard to spread
my wings you better
work real hard on your fears
instead of fighting together now,
work together
work together now


7.Today

today I'm looking at the world
and I see ugliness and beauty neighbours
and angel lives inside a liar
and he doesn't even know
that he has all this inside him

it's been seven years since I've been looking for
and I was crying for more

today I'm taking back my world
'cause I've judging everybody
so easily
instead, I show you who I am
a liar, an angel, a generous egoist genius coward

it's been seven years since I've been looking for
and I was crying for more

today I'm looking at our world
and I think choices are everywhere every second
we choose to love, choose to hate
choose to lose or win
to take a risk or to give up

'cause it's been seven years since I've been looking for
and I was crying for more
it's been seven years since I've been looking for
and I was dying for more

today I'm celebrating our insanity
'cause we are loving unreasonably
we lost our hold
no promises
no signs of where to go
just a pure moment of joy


it's been seven years since I've been looking for
and I was crying for more
it's been seven years since I've been looking for
and I was crying for more


8.Mystical Love

someday i'm gonna take a road in the mystical
and it will never be as cold as in this mystical
but i will try to find my way in this mystical love
the mystical love

but every time i look around it's so mystical
i don't know what i thought i'd find in the mystical
'cause i will always feel alone in the mystical love
the mystical love
he's back home

i will find a way to see who you are
thought every day you're hiding far
you are the same
but locked in your mind
it hurts me every single time
the mystical love

but i will always feel ashamed in this mystical
and i will never win the game in this mystical
someday i will forget my name in this mystical love

but i will try to find my way it's so mystical
then i will try to get away from this mystical
but then eventually i will stay in the mystical love
the mystical love

fly fly lullaby
i could walk in if you want me by
something that you never try to find
come come little born
i would wake you if you wanted warmth
if you're someone that i knew before
love love but
try not to trouble, so i could see your face
i'm walking by
i could walk in if you want me by
the mystical love
he's back... well he's coming back

i will find a way to see who you are
thought every day you're hiding far
i want to go but i'm moving too slow
one day you'll hear me saying time

never been a single time
never heard a single chime
never been a single day
never seen a single ray
si i'm going i won't stay
and one day you'll have to pay
never been a single day
the mystical love... he's back home


9.If I Lost The Best Thing

If I lost the best thing
I ever had
Because of me
I was selfish, stupid and blind
How can it be
That it's so ending
Now we can stop pretending
It just faded so fast I think
I lost you

If you were the best thing
I ever had
To blind to see
We were happy,
How can I find some peace in me
Cause we're both changing
It's now that we've stop caring
It's just time that has made me grow
Apart from you

Cause it's over, it's all over,
it's all over, it's over
it's over, it's all over, it's over now

If we loose the best thing
We ever had
If we forget
Just hold me here in your arms
Like we just met
We will be tender
and say that we'll for ever
And just hope it will last because
i found you

It's now that we've stop fighting
it's now that it's not hard just to stand hand in hand
And always love you
Because I love you


10.Man Of Another Woman

i let you inside
right inside my room
and i had these feelings
i never knew
will the seasons
will they all come true
beautiful tangle
that i can't undo

while i'm waiting
quietly for you
another woman
carries life from you

i took a man from another woman
i took a man from another woman
lie, lie, cry, sigh

will we always
feed the olive tree
god this feeling
is too good to be real
but though i'm trying
to tell you that we're through
my heart always
brings me back to you

i took a man from another woman
i took a man from another woman
lie, sigh
sigh, lie, cry, lie


11.Puppet

into another day they open the box and play watching me turning
round and round 'til the music slows down and fades
i am a ballerine dancing with silver strings i should have never
listened to his promises for my dreams
hey son no matter what they say go far away hey son no matter
what they say run far away my love
you dreamed of fame and gold then you got strangely old someday
you will forget to listen and everything i have told
it's time that i let you go
time that i let you know i will be spinning round and round till
nothing is left to glow
hey son no matter what they say go far away hey son no matter
what they say run far away my love
i was afraid to follow my way i chose to compromise, was safer
to stay seemed so much easier but now i must pay doing the same
dance day after day


12.Stupid Goal


13.Game Is Over

The game is over for mon coeur
I won't need to stand bad d'humeur
I will not fear this douleur
Since the game is over for mon coeur
I begin the see the lumière
Things will not be like hier
It's crazy mais je n'ai pas peur
Since the game is over
The game is over for mon coeur

The game is over for mon coeur
I don't see the same couleur
Where will I find my bonheur ?
Since the game is over for mon coeur

I'm crying almost every heure
I'm fragile like a little fleur
La vie semble sad, that's for sure
Since the game is over
The game is over for mon coeur
The game is over for mon coeur
The game is over for mon coeur
The game is over
The game is over for mon coeur
Since the game is over for mon coeur
Since the game is over for mon coeur
