we're all getting stuck here
without a care in the world
where did that young
boy go now?
where is that little girl?

and I don't even know why
and so I find myself
shying away tonight
you said you wanted more

and I know
it will be hard
just take my hand
and I will show you
so come on
give me a chance
cause I could be the one

and I know
it will be hard
just take my hand
and I will show you
