She’s Too Young

Sixteen, she is still in school
I've got to learn to keep it cool
She's too young, but not for me
So with a bit of luck
She will find a way to come to me

Why do people always intervene?
Very soon she'll be seventeen
She's too young to skip town
She was born to be loved
And I can't wait to bury her down

She's beautiful and waits for me
Will our plans ever come to be?
She's too young, so people say
But with the opportunity
She would run to me today
