Young at Heart
- < instrumental verse >
-
- Fairy tales can come true,
- It can happen to you,
- If you're young at heart!
-
- ( Young at
heart! )
-
- For it's hard you will find
- To
be narrow of mind,
- If you're young at heart!
-
- ( Young at
heart! )
-
- You can go to extremes,
- With impossible schemes,
- You can laugh when your dreams
- Fall apart at the seams . . .
-
- And life gets more exciting,
- With each passing day,
- An' love is either in your heart,
- Or, on the way!
-
- Don't you know that it's worth,
- Every treasure on earth,
- To be young at heart!
-
- ( Young at
heart! )
-
- For as rich as you are,
- It's much better by far,
- To be young at heart!
-
- ( Young at
heart! )
-
- And if you should survive,
- To a hundred an' five,
- Look at all you'll derive
- Outta bein' alive!
-
- And here is the best part,
- You have a head start . . .
- If you are among,
- The very young at heart!
-
- ( Don't you
know that it's worth,
- Every
treasure on earth,
- To be young
at heart!
- For as rich
as you are,
- It's much
better by far,
- To be young
at heart! )
-
- And if you should survive,
- To a hundred an' five,
- Look at all you'll derive
- Outta bein' alive!
-
- And here is the best part,
- You have a head start . . .
- If you are among,
- The very young . . .
- at heart!
