The days of wine and roses
|
Were a long time ago
|
The proms, teenage cruisin'
|
And the picture show
|
You tried so hard
|
To fix your outsides
|
Until you realized that I took
|
Everything dear inside
|
|
Chorus
|
Give me your heart
|
Give me your soul
|
I'll take you when you're young
|
The devil in Miss Jones
|
|
Your daddy had a funny way
|
Of showing you his love
|
It's a shame you've hid well
|
From the Lord up above
|
There's something inside
|
That burns like a fire
|
And you realize you've been blessed
|
With a wild desire
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
Your parochial background
|
Vanished in the wind
|
Perhaps a pornographic future
|
And a million dollar friend
|
You tried so hard to always be the one
|
You're loved by all men, but respected by none
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
I'll take you when you're young
|
And I'll leave you when you're old
|
