Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon
Bert Voordeckers Lyrics

Girl, you'll be a woman... soon
Hey, girl, you're growing up fast and you'll become a woman before you know it

I love you so much, can't count all the ways
My love for you is immeasurable and knows no bounds

I've died for you girl and all they can say is "He's not your kind"
I've sacrificed a lot for you, but people still judge and criticize us because we may not be from the same social class

They never get tired of putting me down
Others constantly belittle and insult me without any regard for my feelings

And I'll never know when I come around what I'm gonna find
I'm always uncertain about the reception I'll receive when I'm around them

Don't let them make up your mind.
Don't let the opinions of others influence the decisions you make for your life

Girl, you'll be a woman soon, Please, come take my hand
I want to be there to guide you as you transition to womanhood

Soon, you'll need a man
One day, when you're ready, you'll want a partner to share your life with

I've been misunderstood for all of my life
People have always misjudged and misinterpreted my actions and intentions

But what they're saying girl it cuts like a knife
Their words are hurtful and can be painful to hear

"The boy's no good"
People have labeled me as a bad person without any basis or evidence

Well I've finally found what I'm a looking for
After a long search, I've finally found someone special to me

But if they get their chance they'll end it for sure
If they get the opportunity, they'll try to ruin what I have with you

Surely would
It's likely that they'll cause problems for us

Baby I've done all I could
I've done everything I can to be with you and make this work

Now it's up to you...
The decision to be with me is yours to make
