Youre top man on the scene
You dont think life comes in between
But hey, shes just seventeen
She feels that shes a worldly girl
But man youve been around the world
She is just some worried daddys girl
Even though theres nothing I can say
Its just human nature any way
Let her down easy
Her heart is on a dime
Let her down easy
And youll grow up in time
In her strawberry eyes
The way she sees you signifies
That shes susceptible to your velvet lies
But if you must lay her down
May a butterscotch glow be her dressing gown
And please do not lead her on when you leave town
Even though theres nothing I can say
Its just human nature any way
Let her down easy
Her heart is on the line
Let her down easy
And youll grow up in time
Shes a woman now
With a daughter to make her proud
In her crayon world of paper clouds
She still remembers you
The first boy that she gave it to
And she laughs at how little then she knew
Let her down easy
Her heart is on the line
Let her down easy
And youll grow up in time
