Only Fifteen
I was born in 89
My mother was a juvenile
She left me at a hospital door
The doctors said he knew someone
That prayed for years to have a son
He ranged me up and took me home
But then fifteen years down the line
My parents they confessed their lie
I was not their own
They told me it was for the best
Your mother was not ready yet
They handed me the note she left
I was only fifteen
Still a kid but that don't mean
It was easy for me(no no no no)
And if my folks had let me
Oh, we would have been
Our own family
So, when the spring of 05'
I found the house and I stood outside
Was waiting for an opening line
Then I found the nerve to knock three times
A lady answered with eyes like mine
I handed her the note she left
She said I hoped you'd come one day
There are so many things to say
Where do I begin
I never called you my mistake
Though there are plenty I have made
But all my words too late
Cause I was only fifteen
Still a kid but that don't mean
It was easy for me(no no no no)
And if my folks had let me
Oh, we would have been
Our own family
But my love is still as strong
Even after all this time
But my love is never gone
Is with you both day and night
I was only fifteen
Still a kid but that don't mean
It was easy for me
And if my folks had let me
Oh, we would have been
Our own family
We would have been
Our own family
My mother was a juvenile
She left me at a hospital door
The doctors said he knew someone
That prayed for years to have a son
He ranged me up and took me home
But then fifteen years down the line
My parents they confessed their lie
I was not their own
They told me it was for the best
Your mother was not ready yet
They handed me the note she left
I was only fifteen
Still a kid but that don't mean
It was easy for me(no no no no)
And if my folks had let me
Oh, we would have been
Our own family
So, when the spring of 05'
I found the house and I stood outside
Was waiting for an opening line
Then I found the nerve to knock three times
A lady answered with eyes like mine

Though there are plenty I have made
But all my words too late
Cause I was only fifteen
Still a kid but that don't mean

And if my folks had let me

Even after all this time
But my love is never gone
Is with you both day and night

Still a kid but that don't mean
It was easy for me
And if my folks had let me
Oh, we would have been
Our own family
We would have been
Our own family
