     E                A        E
To step out of your cradle is like coming down
C#m             B           A
I just had somebody tell me I was
                    E
introspective to a fault
      A           E
I'll be a doozer - if I can
 A             E              F#             A
But I will contented be right now for us to keep
           B
our secret

Chorus:
           E                A
You could tell me all your secrets
E                       A
All you ever do is run and hide
                    B
You can keep it inside
           E                A
You could tell me all your secrets
E                       A
All I have to do is let it ride
                 B
I can keep it inside
            C#m                G#
But if it's as it seems, and I keep having dreams
            B                  C
About the two of us, then it's obvious
             E                          A       E
You should stop treating me like I was just a child
             E                           A       B
You should start treating me like I was just as wild
    A
as you

To step out of your cradle is like coming down
I just had somebody tell me I was
introspective to a fault
I'll be a doozer if I can
But I will contented be right now
if for us keep our secret

Chorus:
We could be a little closer
The mystery you're trying to preserve
You don't need in reserve
We could get a little closer
Intimacy has the greater charm
And it would do no harm
To give a little way, oh please stop holding sway
Oh, you could even read me your poetry
If you could stop treating me like
I was just a child
Start treating me like I was just as wild as you
Stop treating me like I was just a child

   D  E
Child
         D B
Just a child
         D B
Just a child
