Beautiful child
Beautiful child
You are a beautiful child
And I am a fool once more
You were born when I was sixteen
The years had disappeared
Much has gone by since then
And I miss being with you
When you touch me
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
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
(I fell into love)
And 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 men usually are
I’m not a child anymore
No, I’m not a child, oh no
Tall enough to reach for the stars
I will do
As I’m told
Even if I never hold you again
I never hold you again
Sleepless child
There is so little time
Your eyes say yes,
but you don’t say yes
I wish that you were mine
I wish that you were mine
I wish that you were mine
I wish that you were mine
Will you be mine?
