Lyrics

NO CHILDISH THING

I WOULD SWING UPSIDE DOWN FROM A SYCAMORE
DO FIFTY CARTWHEELS ACROSS THE FLOOR
SAVE ALL MY PENNIES TO BUY HER A RING
I'D WRITE TOGETHER FOREVER ON THE OVERPASS
TAKE DEAD MANS HILL WITHOUT ANY HANDS
CAUSE THIS AIN'T NO CHILDISH THING

I PUT A BIG X IN THE BOX NEXT TO I LOVE YOU
THIS AIN'T NO CHILDISH THING
THE WAY SHE HELD MY HAND
SAID SHE PUT AN X THERE TOO
CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE TO DIE
I'M GONNA MAKE HER MINE TONIGHT
THIS AIN'T NO CHILDISH THING

I'LL TAKE HER WINDOW SHOPPING AT THE FIVE N DIME
SHARE A TWO STRAW SODA BY THE MARQUEE SIGN
AND TELL HER HOW I WILL SOMEDAY BE A KING
I'LL STEAL A KISS AND RUN WHEN I WALK HER HOME
THEN SAY GOOD NIGHT WITH ONE RING OF HER PHONE
LORD THIS AIN'T NO CHILDISH THING

I PUT A BIG X IN THE BOX NEXT TO I LOVE YOU
THIS AIN'T NO CHILDISH THING
THE WAY SHE HELD MY HAND
SAID SHE PUT AN X THERE TOO
CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE TO DIE
I'M GONNA MAKE HER MINE TONIGHT
THIS AIN'T NO CHILDISH THING
