Child in my heart,
Grown up too fast.
Faced with being told,
To be the example.
To be seen but not heard,
To smile when I'm sad,
To spend time with my family,
In sickness or in health.
Being guilt tripped,
Into doing things,
I don't want to do.
I grew up too fast,
And now I'm a child at heart.
It's the only childhood,
I've ever got.
