Let me show you how much I’ve grown up since the day you've met me
Allowed myself to evolve and develop into a woman you see
More than just makeup and seductive words
Way more than just long wavy hair and ocean deep curves
I'm sick of this girl you always seem to see
Why can’t you see the woman in me?
I scream at the sight of spiders and sleep with the light on
But you'd never find someone more trustworthy or who you can always rely on.

You're much older than me and I'll admit age is more than a number
But I’ll have you know that my age has never let me encumber
I have way too much to give to you
Endless list of things I want to do with you
Life time of love to share with you

Can we forge age for a second?
Forget that you’re white?
Forget that I'm black and Indian?
Forget about religion!
And just be ourselves for a second.
I just need you to help me understand what I’m starting to feel
Or do I just have to forget my feelings pretend they're not real
