NINE to 10 - Eighteen Lyrics

When I was eighteen I was just a boy
I set aside some things, I set aside my toys
I had big dreams and I had great plans
First and foremost, to grow up and be a man
Came the day I met you
You were gracious through and through
And you had those loving eyes
And you smiled all the while
My heart opened all the way
And I prayed, and I prayed that you would stay
You were so incredible, one of a kind
And you blew my mind

When I was eighteen I wasn't yet a man
Maybe a fool, but God had a plan
He placed me on a path to walk with you
A woman already, although eighteen too
You said leave the past, let's start something new
You taught me forgiveness, I'm so grateful to you
And you whispered in my ear
The "I love you" I'd been waiting to hear
You were so incredible, one of a kind
And you blew my mind

Eighteen
Eighteen
Eighteen
Eighteen
When I was 18
