(They say) I'm a little to young to understand 
But it's a little to late too hold my hand 
You know I never subscribe to yes sir no sir 
Gonna learn gonna love gonna take my chance 
It's a little too late for you to say 
That I'm a little too young to feel this way 

'Cause I just want to be loved just want to be heard 
Be lost in the feeling standing here 
At the door to my life 
Now that day has arrived so loud and clear 
You'll hear me singing 
Do do doo do do do do do do 
I'm singing 
Do do do do do do do do do 

(They say) I'm a little too lost without you here 
(They said) that I'm a little too soft and too sincere 
'cause I never subscribe to who sir me sir 
Gonna stand gonna fall gonna face my fears 
It's a little too late for me to wait 
'Cause your're never to young to feel this way 

'Cause I just want to be loved just want to be heard 
Be lost in the feeling standing 
Here at the door to my life 
Now that day has arrived so loud and clear 
You'll hear me singing 
Do do doo do do do do do do 
I'm singing 
Do do do do do do do do do 

If I want your help I'll say help me 
I'm okay I'm alright won't you hear me loud and clear 

'Cause I just want to be loved just want to be heard 
Be lost in the feeling standing here 
At the door to my life 
Now that day has arrived so loud and clear 
You'll hear me singing 
Do do doo do do do do do do 
I'm singing 
Do do do do do do do do do 

I'm a little too young to understand 
But it's a little too late to hold my hand 
I'm a little too lost without you here 
That I'm a little too soft and too sincere
