Leaving behind the safe dark hiding place of the past

And treading warily out into the harsh daylight of now

I'm coming to find you ... I'm coming to find you

But I've been looking for something for so long now

But then when I look at you

Something in that open honest grown-up smile

frightens me terribly wonderfully

And we retreat once more into the haven

of irresponsibility and immaturity

And we are reduced once more to the awkward language of childhood



You walked right by me, I was right behind the hair, inside the clothes

Don't you get scared out here in the dark?

I know I would I mean I guess I am kinda but maybe if you hold my hand

I know it's sort of queer and all us both being big kids now and all

It's just that everytime I start to look I find you I thought

I know we're much too old you know but maybe this time I thought

And we are reduced once more to the awkward language of childhood



Grow up

Act your age

Don't be such a baby

Baby you're it
