Young At Heart

She spent her childhood
Somewhere deep in Missouri
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’ll understand
I know you’ve felt like me before
Cause you know we’re all young at heart
Met at his friends house
There were cigarettes and Ekko in her
He told her how he would like to learn to fly
It went from love to worst
With a child due 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’ll understand
I know you’ve felt like me before
Cause you know we’re all young at heart
I know you’d like for me to stay
And you could have it that way
But you’d never really have me you know
You could give me so much
But sometimes that’s not enough
No, it’s not enough for me
She’s 54
Felt she needed more than her prescription
Laid there 8 days cold on the florr
Finally a neighbor called
He said «Something seems suspicious»
They had to break down the door
They found that we’re all young at heart
You’ve taught me so much
And brought me so far
I know you’ll understand
I know you’ve felt like me before
Cause you know we’re all young at heart
I thought I needed you
Now I need so much more
I thought I found the truth
Now it seems like it’s still so far
Sold my heart for the perfect drug
It was the worst
Coming down from love.
We’re all young at heart
You’ve taught me so much
And brought me so far
I know you’ll understand
I know you’ve felt like me before
Cause you know we’re all young.
