All of this life it has been-
"she's too young to know what's good for her, you know"
Ah and she should be off with her friends! Having fun, laughing! Go on and play, dear!
But she has been listening in
She has got this heart you see,
Old soul they say
But young enough to know this
and her parents say too young to act like it
It's all this little girl wants is to be her own age
Laugh, joke around, with her real friends
Act her age, because she's old with a young face
Crow's feet when she smiles
Hands that shake when she's got emotion
Little girl is old enough to know what she wants, and still knows
what is GOOD for her
Knows what is safe
and young enough to not care anyway
