You're top man on the scene |
|
You don't think life comes in between |
|
But hey, she's just seventeen |
|
She feels that she's a worldly girl |
|
But man you've been around the world |
|
She is just some worried daddy's girl |
|
Even though there's nothing I can say |
|
Its just human nature any way |
|
Let her down easy |
|
Her heart is on a dime |
|
Let her down easy |
|
And you'll grow up in time |
|
In her strawberry eyes |
|
The way she sees you signifies |
|
That she's susceptible to your velvet lies |
|
But if you must lay her down |
|
May a butterscotch glow be her dressing gown |
|
And please do not lead her on when you leave town |
|
Even though there's nothing I can say |
|
Its just human nature any way |
|
Let her down easy |
|
Her heart is on the line |
|
Let her down easy |
|
And you'll grow up in time |
|
She's a woman now |
|
With a daughter to make her proud |
|
In her crayon world of paper clouds |
|
She still remembers you |
|
The first boy that she gave it to |
|
And she laughs at how little then she knew |
|
Her daughter's five and her grandfather adores her (of course) |
|
Let her down easy |
|
Her heart is on the line |
|
Let her down easy |
|
And you'll grow up in time |
