Be wise, be free when you're young
|
When you're young
|
|
Well, someone told me, not long ago now
|
You're only young but for once
|
It's the one time in a lifetime
|
There is no second chance, second chance
|
|
So when you're young
|
Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams
|
There's a world waiting out there
|
Not always what it seems
|
|
Be wise, be free when you're young
|
When you're young
|
|
It's said, you got your freedom to make your own rules
|
Be nobody's footstool
|
And you may try now to change the world too
|
But don't let it change you, it can't change you
|
|
So when you're young
|
Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams
|
There's a world waiting out there
|
Not always what it seems
|
|
When you're young
|
When you're young
|
|
You see that many a people in my time of mend
|
Telling tales of regret
|
Step aside Grandma, step aside Grandpa
|
There are somethings I must get, I must get
|
|
When you're young
|
Hold your head high and hold on to your dreams
|
There's a world waiting out there
|
Not always what it seems
|
|
When you're young
|
When you're young
|
You know it's the right time
|
You know it's the right time
|
|
Said, I know
|
(When you're young)
|
Said, I know
|
(When you're young)
|
When you're young
|
When you're young
|
