I'm just a boy, but I'm a man My body's young, my mind is old I've lived through life movin' all the time Stories I can tell of things I've seen and done And feelings that I've hid and cannot find Ooh Ooh Ooh I think I'm running out of time Peace of mind, you escape me Peace of mind, you could rape me Every time I get you near to me I've got to chase you to another town The time when I was born, and the city I been in I got the Gypsy Spirit making all my moves I got no home I can remember My only friend is gone And I only see my mother in December Ooh Ooh Ooh I think I'm running out of time Peace of mind, I forsake you Peace of mind, think I hate you Even if you let me find your home I think I'll pass it up and move on down the road Well I got mountains in my past And the valleys up ahead I got miles, and miles, and miles before I sleep I need to have a week, or just a day, or just an hour To sleep, but I can't remember how to dream Ooh Ooh Ooh I'm givin' up on peace of mind
