also, when he says 'i ain't as green as you are young', it's because she still thinks he's just a young boy having fun and he's not ready to change his ways so quickly for her because he doesn't know about love, but he's just doesn't show on the outside that he does know enough to change quickly so he says that "isn't as green" on the inside "as she is young" saying that maybe if anything she's the one who is too young to understand love, so in a way he's taking the ball and saying he knows what to do with it and then throwing it back to her court to say you look pretty young yourself are you sure you know how to play ball, but at the same time he draws a parallel between the two of them, to tell her that they have something in common which is that they both look inexperienced on the outside, but they each know more than they let on, so maybe they are two of a kind and should be together for that reason, and he can't think of a more perfect match, so he doesn't care what it takes, how much hurting it takes, because he can only see himself truly happy in the end if he's with someone like him, who looks greener than they really are, because that's the only person who can really understand how he feels, because people probably look at her and treat her the same way they treat him, and he thinks if they are finally together, two of a kind, they can finally get over how people see them as greenhorns, because when people see them together, they will obviously think differently when they see how much they really know, after they see what they see them doing together.
