I turned fifteen with a gleam in my eye,
I was growing up fast, didn't know why
All the fuss was made about going out
Or "be home by ten!" I heard them shout!
Restrictions, admonitions I heard each day;
It was hard to believe my folks were that way!
I knew better than drink, and I wouldn't try
Any bad stuff that just happened by.
I had my dreams, and soon fell in love;
They said it's puppy love, all hand in glove
With growing up, it was part of the plan,
I just kept trying to be what I am.
I studied hard, my grades were real good;
I did as I was told, just as I should -
And the time went by, soon I was grown;
Ready to make it out on my own.
I grew up fine and I've my folks to thank;
Earned lots of money to put in the bank;
Looking back now, as I happily sat,
It had to be love, or something like that!
