Lyrics[]

(They say) I'm a little to young to understand

But it's a little to late too hold my hand

You know I never subscribe to yes sir no sir

Gonna learn gonna love gonna take my chance

It's a little too late for you to say

That I'm a little too young to feel this way


'cause I just wanna be loved just wanna be heard

Be lost in the feeling standing here

At the door to my life

Now that day has arrived so loud and clear

You'll hear me singing

Do do doo do do do do do do

I'm singing

Do do do do do do do do do


(They say) I'm a little too lost without you here

(They said) that I'm a little too soft and too sincere

'cause I never subscribe to who sir me sir

Gonna stand gonna fall gonna face my fears

It's a little too late for me to wait

'cause your're never to young to feel this way


'cause I just wanna be loved just wanna be heard

Be lost in the feeling standing

Here at the door to my life

Now that day has arrived so loud and clear

You'll hear me singing

Do do doo do do do do do do

I'm singing

Do do do do do do do do do


If I want your help I'll say help me

I'm okay I'm alright won't you hear me loud and clear


'cause I just wanna be loved just wanna be heard

Be lost in the feeling standing here

At the door to my life

Now that day has arrived so loud and clear

You'll hear me singing

Do do doo do do do do do do

I'm singing

Do do do do do do do do do


I'm a little too young to understand

But it's a little too late to hold my hand

I'm a little too lost without you here

That I'm a little too soft and too sincere
