Lyrics Not the Boy Next Door (Live) - Peter Allen

Comin′ home used to feel(my way is still) so good
I'm a stranger now in my neighborhood
I′ve seen the world at a faster pace
And I'm comin' now from a diff′rent place

Though I may look the same way to you
Underneath there is somebody new

I am not the boy next door
I don′t belong like I did before
Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, but you can′t have me

I can't go back there anymore
′Cause I am not the boy next door

You've been savin′ (all) those souvenirs,
Faded photographs from my(our) foolish years
We made plans, but they're wearin' thin
And they won′t work out ′cause I don't(won′t) fit in

And those mem'ries will just weigh me down
′Cause I got no place to keep 'em uptown

I am not the boy next door
I don′t belong like I did before
Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, but you can't have me

I can′t go back there anymore
′Cause I am not the boy next door

And I'm sorry for just bein′ me
But if you'd look past the past you could see
That
