Girl, you start to
see and feel yourself as a woman
and taste things that are beautiful and new.
Girl, you start
to walk through life
hands-free, unhurried,
without reins.
Wait, oh, wait,
you still have
a long way to go.
Wait, oh, wait,
you still have
a long way to go.
Girl, one day you look at yourself
naked in the mirror and you’ll see
that your childhood goes away.
Girl, one day you here
words of love and you’ll
keep silent and feel shame.
Wait, oh, wait,
you still have
a long way to go.
Wait, oh, wait,
you still have
a long way to go.
Girl, one day at your doorstep
your lips will be kissed and you’ll tremble.
Girl, one day you think
that love is over and
you’ll tie your life to
someone.
Wait, oh, wait,
you still have
a long way to go.
Wait, oh, wait,
you still have
a long way to go.
