Michael Jackson - When I Come Of Age

When I Come Of Age

Where have I been
What should I be looking for
What am I gonna be
When I come of age
Will I be strong
Will I be mighty man
Climb mountains if I can
When I come of age
Hey, y’all
I think I’ll be a movie star
Or travel to some distant star
Yeah, that’s it
I’m gonna be an astronaut
And rock it to the moon
And then I’ll be the captain of a giant ship
I’m gonna take a long long trip
To a far off land
When I become a man
And what about love
Will you still be in love with me
I sure hope you will be
When I come of age
And will you be true
Will you still want to marry me
I guess I’ll have to wait and see
When I come of age
My folks say I’m too young for love
But they don’t seem to understand
That what I feel is love for somebody
A feeling I understand
And while I’ve got this feeling
’Cause you girl you’re so grand
And I’ll love you girl just as strong
When I become a man
Wait
(When I come of age)
Be patient honey
You’ve got to believe in me
Wait
(When I come of age)
Wait for me baby
It’ll be just you and me
(We’re gonna be so happy)
We’ll do
(When I come of age)
All the things
We couldn’t do before
When when I come of age
(We’re gonna be so happy)
When, when I come of age
