  |  | The Gift                      It was for youA part of me
 An important part
 A proud part
 
 I was a little boy
 Sharing a treasure
 Sharing a secret
 Sharing a part of me
 
 Later is forever
 In the world of little boys
 Later is a lifetime
 In the hearts of little boys
 
 Little boys shouldn't give gifts
 That were meant for men to give
 Little boys get angry
 With women they mistake for moms
 
 The only gift you give
 Is the one you give yourself
 For the rest aren't gifts at all
 But yearnings to be loved
 
 And little boys shouldn't give gifts
 That were meant for men to give
