Growing Up
I was the crazy, silly, goofy
little girl of the block
and you.. you were the dorky
goofy little boy of the block
together we were a wild little crew
soon years pass
and now were a little older
I'm still the crazy, silly, goofy
girl of the block
but you...your the hardcore, trouble-maker
boy of the block
now were teenagers...
we go on different paths
yet were still best friends
now im the odd, strange, dark
girl of the block
and you...you're the jail bird
trapped with drugs...
my heart aches for you
to get better..
then the truth comes out...
you become all my heart
beats for, all I care for..
you tell me you love me
and I say it back...
then one day...
you get in serious trouble..
you call me
my heart stops..
you come over
its 9:30...
were standing on my
porch...
hugging
I cry in your shoulder...
then we start swaying
your soft gentle lips
met my forehead
as you kiss me..
heart sinks
throat swells
stomach churns..
your soft gentle sweet
words play in my
head like a broken record..
promising me that one day we
share a dance
together
each day we talk
my heart jumps
growing up we were the same
and now...
were two different people...
now years have passed..
and I wait patiently for
that special dance
