I was nine years old
When I pulled your hair
And broke your china doll
I had no clue
What those stomach butterflies
Would have me do
Years gone by
Always wondering
What I'm really looking for
Now
here I am
Back knocking at your door
Now I know
We were kids and you were
Living down the road
Playing hide and seek and
Fought with sticks and stones
Feels like yesterday
But was so long ago -o -o
Now I know
I didn't see it then but
Now your colors show
Was too young and dumb
But guess we all can grow
And this time around
I'll never let you go -o -o
Now I know
Twelve years old
When I tried to kiss you
Heading home from school Oh I cried that day
When you told me that
You had to move away
Years went by
Hoping that someday
I'd see your face
And here I am
Back at your place
Hm -m
Now I know
We were kids and you were
Living down the road
Playing hide and seek and
Fought with sticks and stones
Feels like yesterday
But was so long ago -o -o
Now I know
I didn't see it then but
Now your colors show
Was too young and dumb
But guess we all can grow
And this time around
I'll never let you go -o -o
Now I see in your eyes
What's missing in me
The piece of the puzzle was
Always there in front of me -e -e
Now I know
Now I know
Now you hold my heart
And that feels like home
My peace and my shelter
It's where I have always belonged
Now I know
Now I know
We were kids and you
Were living down the road
Didn't see it then but
Now your colors show
And this time around
I'll never let you go
