We've been so close together,
close from the start
And as you learn to walk away,
take care of your heart
Don't forget your prayers
and whatever you do
Whoever, wherever you are,
I love you
You're all crushes and blushes
and brushes with insight
But you still sleep with your
bears half of the nights
When you're ready and willing
and you're of the right mind
The right teachers come
along most of the time
You were born in the morning
in a quiet place
Born in the morning to
take my place
We've been so close together,
close from the start
And damn the first man who comes
to break your heart
You're all long legs and long hair
and you got big white eyes
And a hundred million questions,
a thousand hundred why's
And I wish I had the answers,
but the best that I can give
Is to be a safe place for you
as long as I live
Cause sometimes as a grown -up,
my strength is all sacked
And I'd give anything to sit
in my own mother's lap
But she's long gone,
long missed the best that I can do
The love she would have given to me,
I'll give to you
As far as I can tell,
as far as I have seen
You couldn't pay me enough to
go back to thirteen
When young girls will find out
and get wise to the rules
And young women do stand up,
and honey, so will you
You were born in the morning
in a quiet place
You were born in the morning
to take my place
We've been so close together,
close from the start
And I'm the first man who comes to
break your heart
