lyrics
When you love somebody
And you know that they could be the one
To break your heart
When all is said and done
When you want her badly
And the moonlight makes you believe
In your dreams
You know that’s half the fun
Well young man
Go forth unashamed
The world rewards the brave
And young love
Burning bright again
Born on the summer wind
You’ll never be so young again.
When you love somebody
And you know that they could be the one
Who’s gonna break your heart
When all is said and done
And you want her badly
And the moonlight makes you believe
In her dreams
You know that’s half the fun
You young fool
You couldn’t find the words
To tell her how you feel
And young love
Born and burned again
Lost on the summer wind
You’ll never be so young,
You’ll never be so young,
You’ll never be so young again.
And you know that they could be the one
To break your heart
When all is said and done
When you want her badly
And the moonlight makes you believe
In your dreams
You know that’s half the fun
Well young man
Go forth unashamed
The world rewards the brave
And young love
Burning bright again
Born on the summer wind
You’ll never be so young again.
When you love somebody
And you know that they could be the one
Who’s gonna break your heart
When all is said and done
And you want her badly
And the moonlight makes you believe
In her dreams
You know that’s half the fun
You young fool
You couldn’t find the words
To tell her how you feel
And young love
Born and burned again
Lost on the summer wind
You’ll never be so young,
You’ll never be so young,
You’ll never be so young again.
