To step out of your cradle
Is like coming down
I just had somebody tell me
I was introspective to a faultI'll be a dozer if I can
But I will contented be right now
For us to keep our secretYou could tell me all your secrets
All you want to do is run and hide
You keep it insideYou could tell me all your secrets
All you want to do is let it ride
Keep it insideBut if it's as it seems
And I keep having dreams
About the two of us then it's obviousYou should stop treating me
Like I was just a child
Start treating me
Like I was just as wild as youTo step out of your cradle
Is like coming down
I just had somebody tell me
I was introspective to a faultI'll be a dozer if I can
But I will contented be right now
For us to keep our secretsWe could be a little closer
The mystery you're trying to preserve
Don't you need in reserve?We could get a little closer
Intimacy has the greater charm
It would do no harmTo give a little way, oh please stop holding sway
Oh, you could even read me your poetryIf you could stop treating me
Like I was just a child
And start treating me like
I was just as wild as youStop treating me
Like I was just a child, child
Just a child, just a child
Just a child, just a child
