Lyrics of Not the boy next door

Comin' home used to feel 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
Oh, i can't come back there anymore
'cause i am not the boy next door
You've been savin' those souvenirs,
Faded photographs from our foolish years
We made plans, but they're wearin' thin
And they don't work out 'cause i don'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
Oh, i can't go back there anymore
'cause i am not the boy next door, uh!
I'm not sorry for just bein' me
But if you'd look past the past you could see
That i am not
Nothin' ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams, oh, but you can't have me
I can't go back there anymore
'cause i am not (you are not)
I am not (you are not)
I am not the boy next door
