When You Are 18

When you are eighteen,

You're a man who is ready,

Who is strong and who's steady,

You know what I mean?

When you are eighteen,

Then you should be respected,

And you don't need protected,

When you are eighteen.

When you are eighteen,

You are braver and bolder

Than that crowd who are older,

You know who I mean?

'Cos when you are eighteen,

With all those years to prepare you,

There's nothing can scare you,

When you are eighteen.

I'm ready to travel,

To follow my star

To the places I've been dreaming of.

I'm ready for living;

I'm ready for life

And I know that I'm ready for love…

But when you are eighteen

They say "Love's complicated

And so over-rated",

You know what I mean?

When you are eighteen,

They say "Wait, and don't worry",

And "Hey! What's your hurry

'Cos you're only eighteen".

I'm ready to travel,

To follow my star

To the places I've been dreaming of.

I'm ready for living;

I'm ready for life

And I know that I'm ready for love…

When you are eighteen,

With the world all around you,

It can sometimes astound you,

You know what I mean?

Just how little they know, ha,

All those cowboys and chancers,

I've got more of the answers….

And I'm only eighteen.
