Lyrics
I must have fell too far
From the family tree
Did you know before I knew
Who I'd be
He hung the moon in your sky
Long before I's born
He was the apple of your eye
And I was just a thorn
He's everything you ever wanted
Everything I couldn't be
Handing him your name
Is more than you ever gave to me
So you can tell me that you love me
But I can hear it in your voice
I'll never shine as bright
As your Golden Boy
Sometimes I see you in the mirror
Though I haven't seen you in years
Would you recognize the man I love?
Or is it something you still fear?
So I'll stand in my brothers shadow
And you can just pretend
That you love me like you love him
When we both know in the end
He's everything you ever wanted
Everything I couldn't be
Handing him your name
Is more than you ever gave to me
So you can tell me that you love me
But I can hear it in your voice
I'll never shine as bright
As your Golden Boy
I've got everything I've ever wanted
Yeah I'm who I's made to be
Stopped watering your name
And planted me a brand new family tree
So I can love you from a distance
And still protect my joy
And be my own kind of
GOLDEN BOY
