Sweet As a Flower lyrics

She was as sweet as a flower just starting to bloom I knew I was in trouble when she walked into the room How could someone so young know of love so soon She knew that I had seen her, I saw her looking my way I felt that I should answer, then what should I say Should I ask her to come with me or forget and walk away? She told me she was older, but I knew she couldn't be She told me she was older, I knew she couldn't be Cause her eyes made me remember the days when I was young and free It's hard when you grow older and you're longing to be young And your song of innocence is a song already sung You can sing it to the sunrise, never to the setting sun
