Growing Up

First  there was the boy

but he seemed like a man

older and bolder

the big 'I am'

 

Then there were the girls

and I took you by surprise

So I told a few half truths

but I never really lied

 

And along came the blond one

and meddled with my mind

Neither could admit 

we were two of a kind

 

And next an older man

came to show me what to do

Who'd have thought that now

I'd teach him a trick or two?

 

A few one night stands

and best friends just for luck

I start to feel a victim

when I shouldn't give a ****

 

And then he came along

and turned it all around

Something quite fantastic

and wonderful I'd found

 

Then he went  as well

and I'm back where I started

I'll keep a brave face

but I'm sorry that we've parted.
