A Boy Becomes A Man

[Verse 1:]
I was only twelve years old
The day was warm my heart went cold
Momma said your Daddy's gone
Son you're gonna have to grow up fast
The two of us is all we have
I need you to be strong

[Chorus:]
That's the day a boy became a man
Every broken road and stepping stone
Has made me who I am
I learned to love, I learned to cry
Even how to say good-bye
And I'm still trying to understand
How a boy became a man

[Verse 2:]
She was only seventeen
Prettiest girl I'd ever seen
On a blanket underneath the stars
By the river we got swept away
In just one night my whole life changed
Should have never gone that far

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
On the day we swore our love
In front of God and everyone

[Chorus]
