I've gone so far from my home 
I've seen the world and I have known 
So many secrets 
I wish now I did not know 
'Cause they have crept into my heart 
They have left it cold and dark 
And bleeding, 
Bleeding and falling apart 

[CHORUS:]
And everybody used to tell me big boys don't cry 
Well I've been around enough to know that that was the lie 
That held back the tears in the eyes of a thousand prodigal sons 
Well we are children no more, we have sinned and grown old 
And our Father still waits and He watches down the road 
To see the crying boys come running back to His arms
And be growing young 
Growing young 
I've seen silver turn to dross 
Seen the very best there ever was 
And I'll tell you, it ain't worth what it costs 
And I remember my father's house 
What I wouldn't give right now 
Just to see him and hear him tell me that he loves me so much 

[CHORUS:]

And when I thought that I was all alone 
It was your voice I heard calling me back home 
And I wonder now Lord 
What it was that made me wait so long 
And what kept You waiting for me all that time 
Was Your love stronger than my foolish pride 
Will You take me back now, take me back and let me be Your child 
'Cause I've been broken now, I've been saved 
I've learned to cry, and I've learned how to pray 
And I'm learning, I'm learning even I can be changed 

[CHORUS:]

And be growing young 
Growing young 
Growing young
