Come here I want to tell you this Listen good cause I don't want you to miss Its important what I tell you, I'm four years older than you I know more than you its just how it is Now be sure you take care of yourself Don't drive too fast, park under lights, always use seatbelts Don't swim in murky water, I'll leave the outside light on for you Walk behind me if you need some relief And if you do decide one day you've had enough I'll say that's ok, just as long as you're here all the time For me to find Cause I rely More than you realise Choose your partner carefully Good looks and charms don't mean maturity It's my job to take care of you, but from boys I can't shelter you Choose someone who you can talk to for years
Make sure you go and see the world Travel will ensure you're not left a little girl Get lost and lose yourself, get found and come home safe Without you to protect I'd disappear And if you do decide one day you've had enough I'll say that's ok, just as long as you're here all the time For me to find Cause I rely More than you realise I don't mean to mother you, cramp your style or smother you But if something were to happen, I couldn't find another you And if you do decide one day you've had enough I'll say that's ok, just as long as you're here all the time For me to find Cause I rely More than you realise All the time For me to find Cause I rely More than you realise
