The truest love is that of an innocent heart
Now I'm older and not so pure.
It makes me sad, but we all get smart
Now I'm older and not so sure...

As time goes by I wonder if I'll love again
Now I'm older and I fear the feeling.
I see these boys and girls and men...
Now I'm older and I know I'm healing.

A glance here, a touch there, and a spark of passion
Now I'm older and I enjoy the rush.
A kiss, a hand, a leg in bitter fashion
Now I'm older and called a lush...

But are they right? 'Cause I think not
Now I'm older and know the world
But I'm still young if you forgot...
Now I'm older and still too wild.

Tame me; I dare you.
i'm older, but still a child.
