accept me (i'm not a girl anymore)

in our younger days

we were so in love

and the thought of losing you

was enough to make me cry

you're the one i want in my world

but i'm a woman now

i'm not just a girl

so won't please accept me

baby

as i am

going straight ahead and on my own

won't you please accept me

baby

as i am

i'm not a girl anymore

i'm all grown up now

in another time

in some obscure place

we were lovers then and lovers we are

some things don't change

all the seasons pass

and you're still around

but how much longer can we last

i'm down

so won't you please accept me

baby

as i am

living straight ahead and on my own

won't you please accept me

baby

as i am

i'm not a girl anymore

i'm all grown up now

baby

i'm not a girl anymore

i'm not a girl anymore

i'm not a girl anymore

i'm all grown up now
