To Be a Man - Boston

(written by Tom Scholz)

What does it take to be a man?
What dos it take to see it's a heart and soul, a gentle hand?
So easy to want and so hard to give.
How can you be a man 'til you see beyond the life you live?
Oh, what does it take to be a man?

We can be blind, but a man tries to see.
It takes tenderness for a man to be what he can be.

And what does it mean if you're weak or strong?
A gentle feelin' can make it right or make it wrong.
What does it take to be a man?

The will to give and not receive.
The strength to say what you believe.
The heart to feel what others feel inside.
To see what they can see.

A man is somethin' that's real.
It's not what you are
It's what you can feel.
It can't be too late
To look through the hate
And see.
I know that's what a man can be.
