Well it was me and Burkam running circles round the joint
|
Trying to jump on the circus trying to get across our point
|
Yeah, we were young and dumb and looking for a fight
|
Burning both ends of the candle at both ends of the night
|
She was walking gracefully like she stepped out of a cocoon
|
Down through Manhattan Boulevard and First Avenue
|
With her black frame glasses and her Daisy perfume
|
I said, "Have we met before?" She said, "No, it's only noon."
|
Uh oh... to be young and dumb and in love
|
To be young and dumb and in love
|
Baby, you got me ten feet off the ground
|
I'm talking too much, and you don't make a sound
|
The prettiest face and those rock-a-bye baby browns
|
All I've waited for's come true
|
To be young and dumb and in love
|
With you, you, you, you
|
Well, we sat in the park grass so scared of the past
|
Tolling round like blankets, oh, this won't last
|
Dancing to five spot records with smoke in the air
|
You could smell it the morning, you could smell it in her hair
|
Found myself on my knees a little more each night
|
Is this what I've waited for for all of my life
|
Put your hand with a feather tattoo on your wrist
|
On this skinny little white boys fat hustling hips
|
Uh oh to be young and dumb and in love
|
|
To be young and dumb and love
|
Baby, you got me ten feet off the ground
|
I'm talking too much and you don't make a sound
|
The prettiest face and those rock-a-bye baby browns
|
All I've waited for's come true
|
To be young and dumb and in love
|
With you, you, you, you
|
She's not like any other girl
|
She's got me crying first, dying first, waiting for the repo man
|
Well, under the weeping willows and a sea firing flies
|
With your gypsy necklace and my big brown bow tie
|
You kissed my lips like I was catching a flight
|
I said if I'm honest I fell for you that first night
|
If I'm honest I fell for you that first night
|
That first night, oh, oh, oh
|
To be young and dumb and in love
|
To be young and dumb and in love
|
To be young and dumb and in love
|
To be young and dumb and in love
|
With you, you, you
|
