I was only looking for the treasure in the dark
But the trees and people in the middle of the park
But the treasure's buried beneath years and years of time

He put his hand in my hand and he told me
'Son, when they all come looking for you
Where are you gonna run? Your heart's running up
To the eyes in your head, are thrashing by'

Be careful what you wish for when you're young
Be careful what you wish for when you're young

The sun is dealing with the devil and he took my soul
To a room with the table in the dark end cold
I signed my name just to say, lies a dog on the line before

I was in the middle of the cliff and the sea
With a ditch right behind me that the ***** couldn't see
She came right at me with tears
And a dress and they both fell off

Be careful what you wish for when you're young
Be careful what you wish for when you're young
