Dear Suzy
I know it seems kinda strange
That I'm writing instead of
Talking to you in person
I just feel it's the only way
To make my point without you trying
To change the subject all the time
You're sixteen now
But we've been goin' out quite a while
I swear, I'm never gonna leave you
I love you so much
I know you love me too
I just think it's time to prove it
We're not kids anymore
We're probably the only teenage couple in the world
Still just holding hands and making out in the movies
Everyone's starting to talk
Besides, I really don't see what's the big deal
All our friends do it
Just because they do
Doesn't mean that I will do
I don't care what they say
Well, this is just between me and you
Try and understand
That I think we should take our time
Since we first began
This has always been on my mind
I'm just not ready
For this kind of relationship
I think we should take it slow
Oh, boy, let's not rush in
If you don't agree with me
I guess it means the end
Please don't try persuading me
'Cause, boy, I won't give in
If you can respect me when I tell you, boy
That I'm not ready, that will show (that will show)
That you're for real (that you're for real)
If you don't respect me when I tell you, boy
That I'm not ready, I will know (I will know)
You don't care how I feel
You tell me that you love me so
And that you'll never let me go (never let me go)
But for sure, boy, we can never know
Please don't be that way
Swore you were different from the rest
There's nothing you can say
That will make me go against my wishes
I'm just not ready
For this kind of relationship
Just think we should take it slow
And we should not rush in
If you won't agree with me
I'm sure this is the end
And don't try to persuade me
'Cause, boy, I won't, no, I won't give in
(Will you respect me when I tell you, boy)
Will you respect me when I tell you
Will you respect me when I tell you, boy
I'm not ready?
