Sorryforsixteen

She said she'd never date in high school
None of those silly boys were lovable
Then I wandered into her life
How is it that I get to call her mine?
She always said I was so cool
Why can't she see I'm a fool?

I'm sorry for sixteen and the way that I behaved
Baby just kiss me, my lips are so lonely when they're not on your face
I'm here for a while holding a place, but a man is what you need
'Cause babe I can smile, I can lie through my teeth
But I'll always be sixteen

You deserve somеbody with a real job
Somebody who can complemеnt your dreams
You deserve somebody with a strong will
Who won't crack like an eggshell at the slightest defeat
Somebody with suits in the closet
Somebody with a plan after college
Babe I'm not what you need, oh why can't you see?

I'm sorry for sixteen and the way that I behaved
Baby just kiss me, my lips are so lonely when they're not on your face
I'm here for a while holding a place, but a man is what you need
'Cause babe I can smile, I can lie through my teeth
But I'll always be sixteen

I did something dumb again like I always do
I can't help but turn my head when you leave the room
Yesterday you were fine, now I can't take you
Will I ever grow up?

Somebody with suits in the closet
Somebody with a plan after college
Babe I can't set you free, oh why can't you see?

I'm sorry for sixteen and the way that I behaved
Baby just kiss me, my lips are so lonely when they're not on your face
I'm here for a while holding a place, but a man is what you need
'Cause babe I can smile, I can lie through my teeth
But I'll always be sixteen
