When you're young, there's a fork Stuck permanently in the road You can go left or right your choice
When you're young, people say That you're just so lucky to be this age They don't know or they can't recall That it's only spring and it's a long, long way to fall
When you're young, all your friends Are at arms length from you, 'round the corner They are here but they'll soon be gone
When you're young and in love And your tongue's all twisted and your heart's on fire Well at least that's just today Tomorrow I'll be older, maybe then I'll know what to say
