Old Enough To Know Better

Wynonna Judd · Revelations [1996]

You'd think I'd have the sense to run

Knowin' where you're comin' from

I can't bring myself to go

Heaven help me I can't say no

I see forever in you deep blue eyes

And I know where the danger lies

Tell me what's a girl to do

When she's up against the likes of you

I'm old enough to know better

But too young to resist

I'd lay awake at night

Wonderin' what I might have missed

But somethin' tells me your trouble

The only trouble is

I'm old enough to know better

But too young to resist

Now good things come to those who wait

Somethin' tells me this is fate

And after all that I've been through

I'm gonna trust my heart to you

I suppose where love's concerned

Some fools just never learn

Lying here in your arms tonight

I can't help but feel

It's gonna be all right, be all right
