I'd rather die young than grow old without you So don't ever leave me whatever you do To see someone's picture where my picture hung Believe me my darling I'd rather die young I'd rather die young than grow old without you So don't ever leave me whatever you do Though others may tempt you and tell you they care You'll find only sorrow in a secret affair Don't leave me never leave me please don't leave me never leave me I'd rather die young.. [ guitar ] I'd rather die young...
