Baby, don't turn out the light
I wanna see you look at me
Whisper only truth tonight
Not just promises and empty fantasy
Chorus:
I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honestly
From someone with a strong heart, a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
Baby, I need for you to know
Just exactly how I feel
Fiery passions come and go
I'd trade a million pretty words for one touch that is real
REPEAT CHORUS
From someone with a strong heart, a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am

They said change your clothes
She said no I won't
They said comb your hair
She said some kid don't
And her parents' dream went up in smoke
They said you can't leave
She said yes I will
They said don't see him
She said his name is Bill
She's on a roll and it's all uphill
Chorus:
She's a wild one
With an angel face
She's a women-child
In a stste of grace
When she was three years oldon her daddy's knee
He said you can be anything you wantto be
She's a wild one runnin' free
She love Rock and Roll
They said it's Satan's tongue
She thinks they too old
They think she's too young
And the battle lines are clearly drawn
REPEAT CHORUS
She has future plans and dreams at night
When they tell her life is hard she says that's all right
