It never really matter to much to me
That you were just to damned old for me
All that really mattered was you were my girlfriend
And Baby thats all that mattered to me

Let me love you down
Even if it takes all night
Let me love you down

I love the way when you kissed me bye

You tell them, that I can do what guys their age can do
