Young & Naive Songtext
I love how you hate the way I always say
That you′ll learn someday
I love how you keep tryin' to hold on to me
When I turn away
You′re painting me pictures of misses and misters
And the pictures I'd love to believe
And that's the beautiful thing
About princes and queens
And you being so young and naive
You say you′re a man, and you swear that you can
Be the world to me
But I′ve seen the world and I can't be the girl
That I think you need
You′ve begged me to listen
To see what I'm missin′
You're talking all Adam and Eve
And I′m tempted to try
But the problem is I am no longer so young and naive
You look like a face in the movies
Your kisses straight out of a dream
You treat me like I was a princess
What in the world is the matter with me?
It's not that I'm jaded
But love′s complicated
It′s hard to see that at 19
I hear what you're sayin′ about havin' faith
And you promise me you′ll never leave
And I wish I didn't know better
But I′m not so young and naive
That you′ll learn someday
I love how you keep tryin' to hold on to me
When I turn away
You′re painting me pictures of misses and misters
And the pictures I'd love to believe
And that's the beautiful thing
About princes and queens
And you being so young and naive
You say you′re a man, and you swear that you can
Be the world to me
But I′ve seen the world and I can't be the girl
That I think you need
You′ve begged me to listen
To see what I'm missin′
You're talking all Adam and Eve
And I′m tempted to try
But the problem is I am no longer so young and naive
You look like a face in the movies
Your kisses straight out of a dream
You treat me like I was a princess
What in the world is the matter with me?
It's not that I'm jaded
But love′s complicated
It′s hard to see that at 19
I hear what you're sayin′ about havin' faith
And you promise me you′ll never leave
And I wish I didn't know better
But I′m not so young and naive
