Young Hearts Run Free (2023 Edit) [Extended]

What's the sense in sharing

This one and only life?

Endin' up just another lost and lonely wife

You'll count up the years

And they will be filled with tears

Love only breaks up to start over again

You'll get the babies, but you won't have your man

While he is busy loving every woman that he can, uh-huh

Say, "I'm gonna leave" a hundred times a day

It's easier said than done

When you just can't break away

(When you just can't break away)

Oh, young hearts run free

Never be hung up

Hung up like my man and me

My man and me

Ooh, young hearts, to yourself be true

Don't be no fool when love really don't love you

Don't love you

It's high time now just one crack at life

Who wants to live in, in trouble and strife?

My mind must be free

To learn all I can about me, uh-huh

I'm gonna love me, for the rest of my days

Encourage the babies every time they say

Self-preservation is what's really going on today

I say, "I'm gonna turn loose" a thousand times a day

But how can I turn loose

When I just can't break away?

(When I just can't break away)

Oh, young hearts run free

They'll never be hung up

Hung up like my man and me

You and me (ohh)

Ooh, young hearts to yourself be true

Don't be no fool when love really don't love you

Don't love you

Ohh, young hearts run free

They'll never be hung up

Hung up like my man and me

My man and me (ohh)

Ohhh, young hearts to yourself be true

Don't be no fool when love really don't love you

It don't love you (ohh)

Ooh, young hearts run free

They'll never be hung up

Hung up like my man and me

My man and me

Oh, young hearts, to yourself be true

Don't be no fool when love really don't love you
