He realized that she was new 2 love

Naive in every way

              Bb                Gm7                
They could take a walk down the ocean side

Make a wish on every wave

They could find a carousel and ride

Or kiss in every cave

They could contemplate the entire universe or just one star

          Bb               Gm        F7                 Bb       
Why is age more than a number when it comes 2 love?

            Bb                 Gm           
Should we ask the ones who speculate

      F7                           Bb          
When they don't know what it's made of?

Should we ask the moonlight on your face

        F7                     Ebsus2     
Or the raindrops in your hair?

             Gm7                      F7                  Riff:
Or should we ask the man who wrote it there in the morning papers?
