Lyrics

When I was a child, I walked like a child
I talked like a child, I acted like a child
Now I'm a man, I'm through with my childish ways
And baby, have I got news for you
I'm telling you what you gotta do
You gotta hold me
You gotta love me
You gotta squeeze me
Or I'll be gone, ha
Little girl
When I was a child, I played like a child
Stayed like a child, obeyed like a child
Now I'm a man, I've put away my childish ways
You see, I'll leave my shell like a butterfly
I'll spread my wings and take to the sky
I'll be leaving
I'll be leaving
Hope you're breathing
'Cause I'll be gone, ha
Hey, there's a whole lot of things that you gotta do
I just gotta tell you 'bout a few
Respect me
You gotta never neglect me
You gotta need me
I say you gotta want me
I say you gotta beg me
Oh, don't play with me
Oh, you gotta love me
I say you gotta want me
I say you gotta need me
Or I'll be gone
