Young At Heart Lyrics
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 Edgar Winter
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..
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
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
There were cigarettes and Edgar Winter
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
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
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
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
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
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..
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..
Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
It's isn't "Ekko" in her... it's Edgar Winter, a musician that Will idolizes.
Will said that this song is kind of a reminder that life doesn't always go the way you want it, it's unplanned and hectic... and you just need to slow down sometimes and live it.
& now that makes much more sense. thanks!
i adore this song. it's pretty... i was a fan of will's when he was in something corporate, so when i saw the cd had come out i got it right away. he's such a great artist..
