Old Enough
Youthful Longings: The Water Cycle's Reflections on Love and Risk
Lyrics
I'm just a boy in the back of a car
I am a young boy sitting in the back of a car.
You're just a girl with nothing on
You are a girl without clothes on.
And I don't think I'm old enough for this
I feel that I may not be mature enough for this situation.
I read all the tips on different ways that it's done
I've read advice on various ways to approach this.
The Real World (MTV) cast thinks it's pretty fun
The cast of "The Real World" on MTV finds this situation enjoyable.
But damnation seems like quite an awful risk
However, the consequences seem like a significant risk.
But then the second that you touch my arm my thoughts dissolve
When you touch my arm, my thoughts become unclear.
There ain't no turning back but what's the part worth hanging on
There is no turning back, but is the experience worth holding onto?
I wanna wait for something holy but no fear of God can
I want to wait for something sacred, but fear of God does not...
Hold me like you do
Hold me like you do.
I doubt you recall and I bet I read you wrong
I doubt if I understood you correctly, and I may have misread you.
Your joke about the gnomes that you'd spread across our lawn
Your joke about gnomes on our lawn—was there a deeper meaning?
Was there something real behind that sheepish grin?
Is there sincerity behind your sheepish grin?
Cuz your friends say it's love and your mom thinks I'm dumb
Your friends believe it's love, and your mom thinks I'm foolish.
And though in my heart there's no one else I could want
Despite that, in my heart, there's no one else I desire.
Talking marriage might not fit the mood we're in
Talking about marriage might not be suitable for the current mood.
But then the second that you touch my arm my thoughts dissolve
Again, when you touch my arm, my thoughts become unclear.
There ain't no turning back but what's the part worth hanging on
There is no turning back, but is the experience worth holding onto?
I wanna wait for something holy but no fear of God can
I want to wait for something sacred, but fear of God does not...
Hold me like you do
Hold me like you do.
But then the second that you touch my arm my thoughts dissolve
Once again, when you touch my arm, my thoughts become unclear.
There ain't no turning back but what's the part worth hanging on
There is no turning back, but is the experience worth holding onto?
I wanna wait for something holy but no fear of God can
I want to wait for something sacred, but fear of God does not...
Hold me like you do
Hold me like you do.
Like you do
-Like you do
-Like you do
-Like you
