Act My Age
It's unlike me
To go skipping down fifth street
Blushing like I'm 16
Speeding down highways and byways
Pressing fast-forward trying to get to your driveway
It's unlike me
To drive home slowly
Thinkin' of you solely
Dancing like my bedroom's a ballroom
I'll spin around alone in the light of the full moon
You know, I grow older with each thing that I go through
I haven't felt young since the world turned blue
But you know I turned sixteen the day that I met you
Make my act age love me like I'm new
And it feels like a rollercoaster rush
Once again, I'm a child with my face blushin'
And it feels like I'm dancing around to the blues
I get lost in the haze
I act my age
It's unlike me
To get flushed from a daydream
Wondering what those signs mean
Swimming like my emotion's an ocean
On the telephone, I'll tell you my devotion
You know, I grow older with each thing that I go through
I haven't felt young since the world turned blue
But you know I turned 16 the day that I met you
Make my act age love me like I'm new
And it feels like a rollercoaster rush
Once again, I'm a child with my face blushin'
And it feels like I'm dancing around to the blues
I get lost in the haze
I act my age
Waiting in anticipation
Am I too the only one who keeps you from aging?
I'm giggling like a child
Watching you smile
Running free and wild
The air in my lungs
Words on the tip of my tongue
Do I keep you young?
'Cause it feels like a rollercoaster rush
Once again, I'm a child with my face blushin'
And it feels like I'm dancing around to the blues
I get lost in the haze
I act my age
It then feels like I'm waiting for a train
Just holding on with the hope that you'll come my way
And it feels like I'm wishing on a star
I get lost in the magic, babe, I act my age
I act my age
To go skipping down fifth street
Blushing like I'm 16
Speeding down highways and byways
Pressing fast-forward trying to get to your driveway
It's unlike me
To drive home slowly
Thinkin' of you solely
Dancing like my bedroom's a ballroom
I'll spin around alone in the light of the full moon
You know, I grow older with each thing that I go through
I haven't felt young since the world turned blue
But you know I turned sixteen the day that I met you
Make my act age love me like I'm new
And it feels like a rollercoaster rush
Once again, I'm a child with my face blushin'
And it feels like I'm dancing around to the blues
I get lost in the haze
I act my age
It's unlike me
To get flushed from a daydream
Wondering what those signs mean
Swimming like my emotion's an ocean
On the telephone, I'll tell you my devotion
You know, I grow older with each thing that I go through
I haven't felt young since the world turned blue
But you know I turned 16 the day that I met you
Make my act age love me like I'm new
And it feels like a rollercoaster rush
Once again, I'm a child with my face blushin'
And it feels like I'm dancing around to the blues
I get lost in the haze
I act my age
Waiting in anticipation
Am I too the only one who keeps you from aging?
I'm giggling like a child
Watching you smile
Running free and wild
The air in my lungs
Words on the tip of my tongue
Do I keep you young?
'Cause it feels like a rollercoaster rush
Once again, I'm a child with my face blushin'
And it feels like I'm dancing around to the blues
I get lost in the haze
I act my age
It then feels like I'm waiting for a train
Just holding on with the hope that you'll come my way
And it feels like I'm wishing on a star
I get lost in the magic, babe, I act my age
I act my age
