Big Boy Now Lyrics by Richard Marx

Big Boy Now Lyrics

    I've been searching / Not the first or the last
    Trying to figure out the mystery of the half empty glass
    Time is turning for the rest of the world
    While a temporary leap of faith helps the story unfurl

    They say that hearts don't stay broken
    Even though the scars remain
    And eyes don't stay swollen
    Even if it feels that way
    Chorus
    But it's not that serious / I'm a big boy now
    And I'm not delirious / So don't show me how
    Cause I've gotten beyond the agony
    And my perspective is saving me

    Never doubted what the cards would reveal
    And if the joker showed his ugly face
    Not that big of a deal
    It's just a moment in the scheme of it all
    But it's difficult to visualize when the axe starts to fall

    But then a heart won't stay broken
    Even on its darkest day
    The right door could open
    Pick you up and drift away

    (Repeat Chorus)
    With all the confusion
    How does anybody come through
    But life is illusion
    And no one can tell you what you've gotta do

    You know a heart won't stay broken
    Even on its darkest day
    The right door could open
    Pick you up and drift away

    (Repeat Chorus)
