-------------------------------------------
How old am I?, I'm old enough to
know
The difference between
infatuation
And a love that has a chance to
grow
How old am I?, I'm not too old
to hear
The sweet ring of truth and
understanding
When the words "I love
you" reach my ear
Don't mind these lines beneath
my eyes, they're well-earned souvenirs
Of a thousand nights of laughter
and occasional tears
And I hope you won't be jealous
of the silver in my hair
It took many lover's quarrels to
put it there
How old am I?, you kiss me and
I'm young
Love's a road never traveled,
life's a song I've never sung
If I make you happy today, I'm
the perfect age
As for tomorrow turn
