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 lovers, 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 that old man coming down the road, shuffling on a stick?

Why, once he pressed a girl against the fence and drank her kiss

And never knew such tenderness, he holds still in his head that bliss

Now he has 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 up
