Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket and a head full of dreams
He said somehow, some way, it's gotta get better than this
Patty packed her bags, left a note for her mama, she was just 17
There were tears in her eyes when she kissed her little sister goodbye
They held each other tight as they drove on through the night
They were so excited
We got but one shot of life, let's take it while we're still not afraid
Because life is so brief, and time is a thief when you're undecided
And like a fistful of sand, it can slip right through your hands
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let 'em put you down
Don't let 'em push you around
Don't let 'em ever change your point of view
Paradise was closed, so they headed for the coast in a blissful manner
They took a two-room apartment that was jumpin' every night of the week
Happiness was found in each other's arms as expected, yeah
Billy pierced his ears, drove a pickup like a lunatic, ooh
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let 'em put you down
Don't let 'em push you around
Don't let 'em ever change your point of view
Come on back
Ooh
(Ooh, ooh, ooh) young hearts be free tonight
(Ooh, ooh, ooh) time is on, on your side
Billy wrote a letter back home to Patty's parents tryin' to explain
He said, "We're both real sorry that it had to turn out this way
But there ain't no point in talkin' when there's nobody listenin', so we just ran away"
Patty gave birth to a ten-pound baby boy, yeah!
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Young hearts be free tonight
Time in on your side
Young hearts gotta learn, free, be free, live free (young hearts be free tonight)
Time is on, yeah, time is on your side
(Time is on your side) time, time, time, time
Is on your side, is on your side, is on your side
Young hearts be free tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, yeah
(Time is on your side) ooh
Ooh
Ooh
