Someday she'll be older, none of this will matter
No one's gonna wonder who she kissed in her heyday
Maybe she'll have children, no, maybe she'll have cats
Maybe she'll have driven all her lovers far away
But she'll still be here, like sun on the water
And she'll wear her hair grey, straight and strong
Yeah
She'll still be here when you will be gone
And she'll have lived with herself all along
You cannot be happy
You cannot be happy
You cannot relax
You cannot take comfort in the freedom of the facts
This child who is your daughter
This woman who's so bold
This woman, child who's wild
Will never do as you have told
But she'll still be here, like sun on the water
And she'll wear her hair grey, straight and strong
Yeah
She'll still be here when you will be gone
And she'll have lived with herself all along
I fell in love with a person
I fell in love with a person
I fell in love with a person
How many times have I gotta explain?
Someday she'll be older
None of this will matter
No one's gonna wonder
Who she kissed in her heyday
Maybe she'll have children
Maybe she'll have cats
Maybe she'll have cats
