The Vandals

The Vandals - Fourteen lyrics

rate me

I've watched you grow for all these years

And shamefully admit

I've loved to watch you blossom and it's awful hard to quit

Feeling these feelings stirring up inside of me

You nearly are a woman now and in a couple years

All the rules and boundaries will slowly disappear

Wait now my child until you get a little older

Every new sunrise brings your heart a little closer to me

But I can't make love to you

Because you're fourteen

Just a peck on the cheek

As I'm counting the weeks go by

We can't make love together

Because you're fourteen years old

And the trust of your mom that we're not doing wrong

I just can't betray, today

Just an ounce of patience we can still do things we like

I watch you eat an ice cream cone

And watch you ride your bike

Patiently longing for that future day of truth

I want to hug and kiss you nearly every time I see you

But I don't want the neighborhood to get the wrong idea

There'll come a day when love like ours is not a crime

Just give it time

But I can't make love to you

Because you're fourteen

Just a hug and a sigh

From a law abiding guy tonight

We can't make love together

Because you're fourteen years old

And the trust of your mom that we're not doing wrong

I just can't betray, today

Oh no I can't make love to you

Because you're fourteen

But Just a peck on the cheek

As I'm counting the weeks go by

We can't make love together

Because you're fourteen years old

And the trust of your mom that we're not doing wrong

I just can't betray, today
