Little fifteen
You help her forget
The world outside

You're not part of it yet
And if you could drive
You could drive her away

To a happier place
To a happier day
That exists in your mind

And in your smile
She could escape there
Just for a while

Little fifteen

Little fifteen

Why take the smooth with the rough
When things run smooth
It's already more than enough

She knows your mind
Is not yet in league
With the rest of the world

And its little intrigues
Do you understand
Do you know what she means

As time goes by
And when you've seen what she's seen... you will
Little fifteen


Little fifteen
Why does she have to defend

Her feelings inside
Why pretend
She's not had a life

A life of near misses
Now all that she wants
Is three little wishes

She wants to see with your eyes
She wants to smile with your smile
She wants a nice surprise

Every once in a while
She wants to see with your eyes
She wants to smile with your smile

She wants a nice surprise
Every once in a while
Little fifteen
