To step out of your cradle
Is like coming down
I just had somebody tell me
I was introspective to a fault

I'll be a dozer if I can
But I will contented be right now
For us to keep our secret

You could tell me all your secrets
All you want to do is run and hide
You keep it inside

You could tell me all your secrets
All you want to do is let it ride
Keep it inside

But if it's as it seems
And I keep having dreams
About the two of us then it's obvious

You should stop treating me
Like I was just a child
Start treating me
Like I was just as wild as you

To step out of your cradle
Is like coming down
I just had somebody tell me
I was introspective to a fault

I'll be a dozer if I can
But I will contented be right now
For us to keep our secrets

We 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 harm

To give a little way, oh please stop holding sway
Oh, you could even read me your poetry

If you could stop treating me
Like I was just a child
And start treating me like
I was just as wild as you

Stop treating me
Like I was just a child, child
Just a child, just a child
Just a child, just a child
