It Takes A Young Girl - Jesse Winchester

It takes a young girl to make an old man smile

It takes a young girl to make an old man fly

Why should it take a young girl

To move this old heart of mine?

It would take an old man too long to explain

How a young girl plays an old, old game

But that’s just how it is, first she’s yours and then she’s his

And that’s always, always the same

It’s been ten long years since I’ve cried

It’s been five, I know five since I’ve even tried

Now why should it take a young girl

To move this old heart of mine?

But that’s just how it is, first she’s yours and then she’s his

And that’s always, always the same
