Our Hearts Were Young
Our hearts were young.I might have swornThat they were spinning on a wheel.If I could hold you in my arms,They're dancingIn your parents' field.On a Greyhound to the city,Go tell her how you feel.As if a picture of a faceCould make the whole thing seem more real.I take some time off from the cityAround the same time every year.And if they ask me where you're living, baby,They'll never find you here.You know the first few times I visit withThe silence drives me queer,But now if living makes you happy,That's all I really care.(Come on, come on.)Come on, come on.Laid in bed, stone-cold soberFor the better part of last week,Thinking you deserved somebodySongtexteThat'd treat you twice as good as me.Surely there must be anotherThat can give you what you need.You see a million other facesJust walking up the street.(Come on, come on.)All the roses at your feet(Come on, come on.)By any name would smell as sweet.(Come on, come on.)Breaking up into a reef.(Come on, come on.)Love is all the same to me.In the evening, as you came home,Laid your weary head to sleep.Tried to tell you I was leaving,But in the dark, I couldn't speak.That I could hold your naked bodyIs a miracle to me.If there are other lovers out there,They'd be fine to let us be.(Come on, come on.)Let your freak flag fly from me.(Come on, come on.)Sing a brand new melody.(Come on, come on.)It's what they all came here to see.(Come on, come on.)But it's all the same to me.
