You look like a woman, and you move like one, but your parents are still tellin' you that you're too young |
|
It's causing you pain, baby don't you cry 'cause it won't be long |
|
'Til we can stay together 'til the morning comes |
|
And share each other's dream when you're eighteen |
|
When you reach eighteen there won't be anything anyone can do |
|
I'll help you erase every trace of the pain they put you through |
|
But right now, they say you've gotta wait for love, and you know what they mean |
|
But they've got to set you free when you're eighteen |
|
You've been told that you can't see me, but we know that that's the one who you wanna keep |
|
So we plan and we scheme, and I see you whenever you can slip outside |
|
Just like two thieves in the night, they make us hide |
|
We won't care where we're seen when you're eighteen |
|
When you reach eighteen there won't be anything anyone can do |
|
I'll help you erase every trace of the pain they put you through |
|
But right now, they say you've gotta wait for love, and you know what they mean |
|
But they've got to set you free when you're eighteen |
|
When you reach eighteen there won't be anything anyone can do |
|
When you reach eighteen there won't be anything anyone can do |
