I wanted so badly
To grow up
But no one told me
Broken hearts
And falling walls
Could touch me
In places that
Were once virgin
Stretching out my
Arms to you as
You walk by
I touch my baby
I carry within
And I cry as
I see we are over
I want to go back
Take my time
Do not hurry
Start all
Over again
Now I am old
And the child is grown
And I look out
Over the horizons
And wonder if you
Are still traveling
Strumming your
Love songs
That play on your heart.
