The love of a boy
Can change a girl into a woman! (woman, a woman)
I know that it's true, (know that it's true)
My love for you (my love for you)
Made me a woman!

Once I was only a girl, young and afraid,
You came to me and you gave me love, what a difference you made!

The love of a boy (love of a boy)
Can change a girl (can change a girl) into a woman. (woman, a woman)
With just one caress, (just one caress)
Your tenderness (your tenderness)
Made me a woman.

Made me a woman in love, faithful and true,
Love burning deep in my heart and soul,
And it's only for you,
My true true love.

The love of a boy (love of a boy)
Can change a girl (can change a girl) into a woman! (woman, a woman)
With just one caress, (just one caress)
Your tenderness (your tenderness)
Made me a woman.

Made me a woman in love, faithful and true,
Love burning deep in my heart and soul,
And it's only for you,
My own true love.
And it's only for you,
My own true love.
Yes it's only for you,
My own true love.
And it's only for you...
