A Grown Up Kind of Love

Young love is such a piece of cake

So sweet, but gone so fast

You’re high then you’re low and then stomachache

It isn’t meant to last

But our love is like a garden

To be tended and taken care of

Our nourishment never uncertain

A grown up kind of love

When I’m downhearted

She gives me thrill

She gives me reason

When I’m losing my will

When I’m in the valley

Hungry and cold

I can keep climbing

Cuz she warms me and feeds my soul

It’s such a shame when a heart’s fare goes to waste

It pains me just to think of

Those hungry souls who never will taste

A grown up kind of love
