Love you so muchcan't count all the ways

I'd die for you girland all they can say is

"he's not your kind"



They never get tired of puttin' me down

And I never know when I come around

What I'm gonna find

Don't let them make up your mind

Don't you know



Girlyou'll be a woman soon

Please come take my hand

Girlyou'll be a woman soon

Soon you'll need a man



I've been misunderstood for all of my life

But what they're sayin'girljust cuts like a knife

"the boy's no good"



WellI finally found what I've been looking for

But if they get the chancethey'll end it for sure

Sure they would

BabyI've done all I could

It's up to you



Girlyou'll be a woman soon

Please come take my hand

Girlyou'll be a woman soon

Soon you'll need a man
