The Difference
The Wallflowers Lyrics
One, two boys by the river
Down by the water tellin' riddles in the dark
With fireflies under the moonlight
Carvin' the insides of a tree with a knife
Ever hear the one about the boy's big sister
His best friend come along
He tried to kiss her
The only difference that I see
Is you are exactly the same as you used to be
One boy lives in a tower
With bow and arrow and the artificial heart
With his girl late in the summer
He loaded the cannon with a jealous appetite
They say that children now they come in all ages
And maybe sometimes old men die with little boy faces
The only difference that I see
Is you are exactly the same as you used to be
The only difference that I see
Is you are exactly the same as you used to be
You always said that you needed some
But you always had more, more than anyone
The only difference that I see
Is you are exactly the same as you used to be
The only difference that I see
Is you are exactly the same as you used to be

Mein Herz schlägt für dich
One, two boys by the river
Down by the water
Tellin' riddles in the dark
With fireflies under the moonlight
Carvin' the insides of a tree with a knife
Ever hear the one about the boy's big sister
His best friend come along
He tried to kiss her
[Chorus:]
The only difference
That I see
Is you are exactly the same
As you used to be
One boy lives in a tower
With bow and arrow
And the artificial heart
With his girl
Miad of dishoner
He loaded the cannon
With a jealous appetite
They say that children now
They come in all ages
And maybe sometimes old men die
With little boy faces
[chorus]
[repeat]
You always said that you needed some
But you always had more, more than anyone
Normu pipita
Uno, dos chicos por el río
Por el agua
Contando acertijos en la oscuridad
Con luciérnagas bajo la luz de la luna
Carvin de las entrañas de un árbol con un cuchillo
¿Ha oído hablar acerca de la hermana mayor del niño
Su mejor amigo que ha venido a lo largo de
Trató de besarla
[Estribillo:]
La única diferencia
Que yo vea
¿Está usted es exactamente el mismo
A medida que solía ser
Un niño vive en una torre
Con arco y la flecha
Y el corazón artificial
Con su novia
Miad de dishoner
Cargó el cañón
Con un apetito celos
Dicen que los niños ahora
Vienen en todas las edades
Y tal vez a veces los viejos mueren
Con caras de niño pequeño
Usted siempre dijo que necesitaba un poco de
Pero siempre había más, más que nadie

This entire album still holds up almost 30 years later. I remember this came out when I was in 9th grade and everyone raged about one headlight (which I love too) but this song was my favorite. I always had this playing in my portable CD player on the way to school every morning that year. Portable CD players, hows that for a walk back in time. Don’t hit it, you’ll make it skip and scratch your cd. Lol.

Everyone knows about the wallflowers, the lead singers dad was Bob Dylan for Christ sake. They had nonstop radio play from 1993-2005 over a decade of solid popularity.

@Jeff I get you but at the same time think you're not grasping the issue the way OP and probably me are...I do know they were recognized and their songs are staples of the 90's, but when people say they're underrated it's because they could've been regarded even higher...like Oasis, Pearl Jam, Foo fighters high...
