You were sixteen and I was all wired    You were Venus di Milo inspired   You convinced me that I was ok   I convinced you that maybe you'd stay      If I thought that you'd give up on me   I'd have never said hello   Girl you gotta know      We grew up and you grew away   But I'd follow you till my dying day   All the guys that would try for your hand   Couldn't steal you from this desperate man      And this face that you see   Well you know it ain't me   With this lack of resolve and of will   Like a dog that won't learn   Visions you can't discern   But you know me and you like me still      26 and I've grown enough   I'm not better, but I won't give up   You're still here like a flower in rain   You get knocked down then you rise up again
