Time Sure Changes Things

When I was a little boy of twelve
Girls were the last thing on
my mind
Passing years changed my way of thinking
Because lately one is on
my mind all the time
A girl I used to
always pull her hair
Passing years sure changed her looks
Only yesterday
my heart skipped a beat
When she agreed to let me carry her books.
When my friends
saw me carrying her books
They laughed and pointed their fingers at me
No
matter how much they teased I didn't care
Because I was and still am as happy
as can be.
Time sure changes things....
