Beyond His Years

Sexy boy but he's lacking maturity
Not the man I expected he'd grow to be
Is he just toying? Or is he the boy in
My nightmare factory

Am I his lover, or mother eventually?
Will I see myself as he sees me?
Am I denying? Does he know that he's trying
My patience constantly

Turn back the scrapbook to age 5
He's looking right back at me with those eyes
Am I feeding
Or misreading
Or am I

Beyond his years
Na na na, na na na, na na na na na na

Am I ignoring my friends when they tell me
"He's a child." "Run away." "It's insanity."
He wrecks my nerves, does he know that it serves
No possibility

From the start we sparked electrically
And had a future as far as the eye could see
Thought it's a preview I could sink my teeth into?
I guess the joke's on me

Turn back the scrapbook to age 5
He's looking right back at me with those eyes
Am I leaving
Or mistreating
Or am I

Beyond his years
Na na na, na na na, na na na na na na

Maybe the blame should be on me
I want the man you cannot be
There's just one thing I want to know
Why am I so

Beyond His Years
Na na na, na na na, na na na na na na
Beyond His Years
Na na na, na na na, na na na na na na
