i'm just a lonely boy  with fears dreams tears and joy  a mystic child  i wanna be a star  a man with all the power  of the ultimate mind  i want to wear sunglasses and be not understood  i want to have an epitaph in Hollywood  sometimes i don't wanna try  sometimes i don't wanna cry  don't grow up too, don't grow up too fast  i'm still a lonely boy  with fears dreams tears and joy  a mystic child  i wanna be a star  a man with all the power  of the ultimate mind  i want to have a big red car a blonde girl by my side  i want to call my kids John and Marilyn  sometimes i don't wanna try  sometimes i don't wanna cry  don't grow up too, don't grow up too fast
