I'm not yet eighteen So am I, but I'm closer at eighteen Loving like a grown-up while I'm still a teen Pushing away love all because I'm still a teen
I steal unknown glances I've always known your glances I plan on making advances I'm waiting for your advances
I'll be the Verson for you Janyne I don't think I can be the Janyne I don't care about those meanness I don't even know why I have this meanness
Walk past you with a guitar No eye contact as you walk past me with your guitar Ready to write you a song, I'd go that far You're trying but this isn't going that far
You've always been older I've always been older I don't think anyone's colder I'm the one who's colder
I'm trying hard to earn you Walk close, I'll walk away from you As if the only thing I have is you I'm not the only possible one for you
I have been focused I was so out of focus You could've been my muse I don't want to be a muse
Enough talking back After all I've done, I never want to go back The efforts aren't meant to be left at the back So enough talking back
I will talk back I know your efforts, You never want to go back I didn't leave your efforts, I just walked back I will never stop talking back
We have plenty of time But for love, I don't have time You will, Once you become mine That's not my focus and you cannot call me "mine"
I gave so many signs I didn't see any signs I sent so many signals I was blacked out of signals
You're not yet eighteen You're just closer at eighteen Maybe I can be Janyne without Verson I'll remain the person you know as Verson
It wasn't you But it's always been you I don't know what to do You don't have to worry about anything, let me do
You're not responsible for it Yet here I am, I want to go for it I never asked you to do it I know, just please, let's go meet
You're not at your legal age yet, so do I I know, I'm not acting odd, do I? You're not the type of guy, you're always shy I know, I don't have the needed might
