Young Lovers
Young lovers, young lovers, young lovers I see them everywhere I go Holding hands in the park As the sky grows dark Young lovers don't want to go home Young lover, young lovers, young lovers They drive me right out of my mind Lying down by the river Whispering 'forever' Young lovers, they don't have very long (Everybody was a young lover once See this old man coming down the road, shuffling on a stick Once he pressed a girl against a fence and drank her kiss And never knew such tenderness He holds still in his head that bliss Now he had to sit down to take a piss) Young lovers, young lovers, young lovers They seem to get younger every year Find a job, get a loan Raise some kids 'til they're grown Young lovers, they don't have very long Young lovers don't know what's coming on From Letras Mania
