The Encounter (Boy Meets Girl)

THE ENCOUNTER (BOY MEETS GIRL) - Written by Carroll Bryant


When does a man stop acting like a child?
When does a man stop being so wild?
When does a man stop going out at nights?
When does a man stop getting into fights?
When does a man stop losing self respect?
When does a man stop looking like a wreck?
When does a man stop being so cruel?
When does a man stop being so blue?

It's when boy meets girl
When boy meets girl
It's when boy meets girl

And this boy has met a girl

When does a man learn to settle down?
When does a man find out what he's found?
When does a man get what he wants?
When does a man learn about love?
When does a man gain responsibility?
When does a man really get to be?
When does a man try to do his best?
When does a man finally pass the test?

It's when boy meets girl
When boy meets girl
It's when boy meets girl

And this boy has met a girl

Life has been so eventful
Nothing to sacrifice 
You're going full throttle 
No time to realize that you are alone
Your love has no home
But in a summer's night
Your eyes met mine 

When does a man start searching for his soul?
When does a man find a place to go?
When does a man gain prosperity?
When does a man finally believe?

It's when boy meets girl
When boy meets girl
It's when boy meets girl 

And this boy has met a girl
