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.
|
Patti packed her bags, left a note for her momma, she was just seventeen,
|
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 exited.
|
We got just 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 them 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 tworoom apartment that was jumping ev'ry 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 them put you down, don't let 'em push you around,
|
don't let 'em ever change your point of view.
|

|
Young hearts be free tonight.Time is on your side.
|
|
Billy wrote a letter back home to Patti'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 talking when there's nobody list'ning so we just ran away
|
Patti 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 run free, be free, live free
|
Time is on, time is on your side
|
Time, time, time, time is on your side
|
is on your side
|
is on your side
|
is on your side
|
Young heart be free tonight
|
tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, yeah
