He wakes up, wakes up early today
He doesn't feel like, feel like going through this routine day
Uh, oh, he runs to, runs to catch a spot on the subway
He gets to, gets to work, it's five past eight

But when he sees her he's not just a typical city boy
She makes him feel like so much more
She helped him believe, things are more than they seem
And have some hope

His friends they, friends they laugh and say he's crazy
Because he believes his life will really go somewhere
Oh, I know that, know that sometimes life seems so unfair
But some day, some day I know he'll get there

'Cause when he sees her he's not just a typical city boy
She makes him feel like so much more
She helped him believe, things are more than they seem
And have some hope

He wakes up in the morning
He finds he's all grown up
And inside he hears a warning
Can he be enough?
Can't people see that, see that he's too good to be true
And it's hard to believe after all he has been through

I never seen someone so filled with love like you
How can it be you, be you cannot see it too?

Because to me he's not just a typical city boy
Because to me he is so much more
He helped me believe, things are more than they seem
And I have some hope

Not not just a typical city boy
She makes him feel like so much more
She helped him believe, things are more than they seem
And have some hope

Because he's so much more and he's so much more
He's so much more to me
So much more, he's so much more to me
