Not the Boy Next Door (Peter Allen, Dean Pitchford)

Coming home use to feel so good
I'm a stranger now in my neighborhood
I've seen the world at a faster pace
And I'm coming now from a diffrent 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

Nothing ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams but you can't have me
oh I can't come back here anymore
'Cause I am not the boy next door

You've been saving those souvenirs,
Faded photographs from my foolish years
I've made plans, but they're wearing thin
And they won't work out 'cause I don't fit in
And those memories will just weigh me down
I got no place to keep 'em uptown

I am not the boy next door
I don't belong like I did before
Nothing ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams but you can't have me

I can't come back here anymore
'Cause I am not the boy next door

I'm not sorry for just being me
if you'd look past the past you could see

That

I am not the boy next door
I don't belong like I did before
Nothing ever seems like it used to be
You can have your dreams but you can't have me

Oh I can't come back here anymore
'Cause I am not
I am not
I am not... The boy next door
