On that day you talked to me, I waited so patiently
For what you gave, when you gave
Said my boy, it's not a toy
A red and velvet steel Rolls Royce
Now I know, what it is
Ever since this summers lost
We never stop to count the cost
What you did, what you did
Still bestowed to shaking hands
A boy would soon become a man
Now I know why it is
Now I know why
Now I know why it is
Now I know why
Now I know why that is
On that day you talked to me, I waited so patiently
For what you gave, when you gave
Said my boy, it's not a toy
A red and velvet steel Rolls Royce
Now I know, what it is
Ever since this summers lost
We never stop to count the cost
What you did, what you did
Still bestowed to shaking hands
A boy would soon become a man
Now I know why it is
Now I know why
Now I know why it is
For what you gave, when you gave
Said my boy, it's not a toy
A red and velvet steel Rolls Royce
Now I know, what it is
Ever since this summers lost
We never stop to count the cost
What you did, what you did
Still bestowed to shaking hands
A boy would soon become a man
Now I know why it is
Now I know why
Now I know why it is
Now I know why
Now I know why that is
On that day you talked to me, I waited so patiently
For what you gave, when you gave
Said my boy, it's not a toy
A red and velvet steel Rolls Royce
Now I know, what it is
Ever since this summers lost

What you did, what you did
Still bestowed to shaking hands
A boy would soon become a man

Now I know why
Now I know why it is
