She's Older Now Lyrics

I used to be naïve, but understanding
I listened to every word he had to say
He was like Confucius with words of wisdom
A light to light me on my way
But I don't listen to the words no more
I know what I'm lookin' for
Someone opened the door to the light of day
(Because she's older now) Said I'm older now
(She's older now) Don't need you to show me how
(Because she's older now) Said I'm older now
And it's over now

Maybe you're not the man I thought you should be
Maybe I'm not the woman you once knew
But there's still a faded magic shining in my eyes
This woman I've become is too much for you

So let's be happy with what we've had
Things didn't turn out that bad
At least a little of our dream came true

(Because she's older now) Said I'm older now
(She's older now) Time has taught me how
(Because she's older now) Said I'm older now
And it's over now

Didn't know I'd grow up in a hurry
So what's the use in sayin' I'm sorry
Nothin' stays the same

(Because she's older now) Said I'm older now
(She's older now) I don't need you to show me how
(Because she's older now) Said I'm older now
And it's over now

I'm finally usin', huh, my own brain
And I can tell the sunshine from the rain
I'm older now
And it's over now

I dress myself and I comb my own hair
And I go to the places you think I wouldn't dare
I'm older now
Time has taught me how, hey
I said take a good look at your baby
She's done become a lady
I'm older now
And I don't need ya,
I don't need ya,
I don't need ya,
I don't need ya,
I don't need ya

I said that I...
I said that I...
Said I'm older now, hey

(She's older now) Time has taught me how

I'm older now
And it's over now
'Cause I'm colder now
Time has taught me how

And it's over now
Said it's over now
And I don't need ya, I don't need ya

I'm older now
I'm older now
I could show you how
You can't treat me like a little girl
'Cause I've been all around the world
I'm older now
Time has taught me how, hey

Take a good look, look at me
Said I'm a woman totally
I'm older now
And it's over now, oh

I, I'm fully grown
I've got a baby of my own
I'm older now
And it's over now

Thank you, baby, for raisin' me
To be this woman, this lady
I'm older now
And I don't need ya,
I don't need ya,
I don't need ya,

I don't, I don't,
I don't need ya

(She's older now) I said that I...
I said that I...
Said I'm older now, hey, hey

Took a good look in the mirror
The picture got a whole lot clearer
I'm older now
To tell you the truth I can show you how
