Am
She was as sweet as a flower just starting to bloom
                Dm7                              Am
I knew I was in trouble when she walked into the room
                     Em            Dm7     Am
How could someone so young know of love so soon

                    Am
She knew that I had seen her, I saw her looking my way
                     Dm7                        Am
I felt that I should answer, then what should I say
Em                            Dm7
Should I ask her to come with me
Am
Or forget and walk away?

Am
She told me she was older, but I knew she couldn't be
Dm7                                            Am
She told me she was older, I knew she couldn't be
Em                                Dm7                       Am
Coz her eyes made me remember the days when I was young and free

Am
It's hard when you grow older and you're longing to be young
Dm7                                          Am
And your song of innocence is a song already sung
Em                              Dm7                  Am
You can sing it to the sunrise, never to the setting sun
