Fourteen

歌詞

I've watched you grow for all these years And shamefully admit I've loved to watch you blossom and it's awful hard to quit Feeling these feelings stirring up inside of me You nearly are a woman now and in a couple years All the rules and boundaries will slowly disappear Wait now my child until you get a little older Every new sunrise brings your heart a little closer to me But I can't make love to you Because you're fourteen Just a peck on the cheek As I'm counting the weeks go by We can't make love together Because you're fourteen years old And the trust of your mom that we're not doing wrong I just can't betray, today Just an ounce of patience we can still do things we like I watch you eat an ice cream cone And watch you ride your bike Patiently longing for that future day of truth I want to hug and kiss you nearly every time I see you But I don't want the neighborhood to get the wrong idea There'll come a day when love like ours is not a crime Just give it time But I can't make love to you Because you're fourteen Just a hug and a sigh From a law abiding guy tonight We can't make love together Because you're fourteen years old And the trust of your mom that we're not doing wrong I just can't betray, today Oh no I can't make love to you Because you're fourteen But Just a peck on the cheek As I'm counting the weeks go by We can't make love together Because you're fourteen years old And the trust of your mom that we're not doing wrong I just can't betray, today
