She said hello and smiled
Melted inside but all the while
Stood there trying to keep my cool
No way could she want me
She thinks I'm a fool
My angel with her big brown eyes
Beautiful skin and fantastic smile
Those brown eyes that never see me
As the man I am or the man I could be
Could she love me?
CHORUS
Difference of 19 years
Age is just a number
I'll be 18 for the rest of my life
Living with this hunger
Why is life so cruel to me
The girl I want just cannot see
That we would be so good together
A perfect love that would last forever
It would last forever
REPEAT CHORUS
From a distance I watch her ruin her life
With guys that just won't help her
I'll wait in the wings with advice
Off she goes again to ruin her life
Without me there to guide her
REPEAT CHORUS
