She spent her childhood, somewhere deep within misery
Grew up faster than her heart
Mom said, 'You're a child of God'
She said, 'But mom, I'm in such a hurry
It might be California, maybe New York'

'Cause you know we're all young at heart
You've taught me so much and brought me so far
I know you understand, I know you felt like me before
'Cause you know we're all young at heart

They met at his friends house
Over cigarettes and [Incomprehensible]
He told her how he'd like to learn to fly
They went from love to worse
With a child too in December
She left him with a note in July

It said that we're all young at heart
You've taught me so much and brought me so far
I know you understand, I know you felt like me before
'Cause you know we're all young at heart

I know you'd like for me to stay
And we can have it that way
But you never really have me known
Oh, you can give me so much
But sometimes love is not enough
No, it's not enough for me

She's 54, I thought she needed more than her prescription
Laid there 8 days, cold on the floor
Finally a neighbor called, he said
'Something seems suspicious'
They had to break down the door

They thought that we're all young at heart
You've taught me so much and brought me so far
I know you understand, I know you felt like me before
'Cause you know we're all young at heart

Oh, I thought I'd need you
Now I need so much more
I thought I'd found the truth
Now it seems like it's still so far
Sold my heart for the perfect drug
It was too worse, came down for love

We're all young at heart
You've taught me so much and brought me so far
I know you understand, I know you felt like me before
'Cause you know we're all young
