Lyrics
Beautiful child Beautiful child You are a beautiful child And I am a fool once more You fell in love when I was only ten The years disappeared Much has gone by since then I bite my lip, can you send me away? You touch, I have no choice, I have to stay Ooh, I had to stay Ooh, I had to stay Sleepless child There is so little time Your eyes say yes, but you don't say yes Well, I wish that you were mine I wish that you were mine You say it will be harder in the morning I wait for you to say, just go Your hands held mine, so few hours But I'm not a child anymore I'm not a child anymore I'm tall enough to reach for the stars I'm old enough to love you from afar Too trusting, yes, but then women usually are (I'm not a child anymore) I'm not a child, oh no (I'm tall enough to reach for the stars) I will do as I'm told (I'm old enough to love you, from afar) Even if I never hold you again, yeah (Too trusting yes, but then women usually are) Hold you again (Hold you), sleepless child There is so little time (I will do as I'm told) Your eyes say yes but you don't say yes (Even if I never hold you) I wish that you were mine (Again) (Hold you) I wish that you were mine (Again) (Even if I never hold you) Well I wish you were mine (Again) (Hold you) Well I wish that you were mine (Again) (I'm not a child anymore)
