Innocence is Golden

Innocence is Golden

Dear love I write this letter
Because you make my heart sing
With flattering utters
That makes me blush

You make me flirt
Wiggle like jelly
When I see you coming
In my direction

When feeling bashful
Blushing pink
You make me giggle
When you touch my cheeks

Like a virgin on prom night
Experiencing her first love
You make my heart beat quickly
When you kiss my lips

A girl living the new thirties
Innocence is golden

Hmmm.......

Using Cuz instead of Cause makes this somewhat unappealing, and the repetition of it is sort of like a song. The last two lines could use a little revision. I'm no expert that is just my opinion, happy new years day, and good luck. :)
