For The Young At Heart Lyrics - 1961

[ Buy For The Young At Heart ]

I'm out doin' the usual places,
And i'm livin' it, like young!
Then i dig me this face of all faces,
She's the craziest, like young!

She drinks coffee at caf
She reads kerouac , like young!
She goes where all the angry young men go,
Recites poetry, like young!

We start blowin' the pad about lovin'
And we're homin' it, like now!
We spin records on cloud number seven,
And she's reaching me, like wow!

( he's all unstrung,

If she were to frosh him and go,
He's startin' to wear his hair again,
Just like a square again! )

I keep a getting' the kookiest notion.
I think maybe it's like love!
I've been feelin' a crazy emotion,
I think baby, it's like love!

Now we're ridin' a rainbow to cloudsville,
And we're makin' it like young!
Love . . . soft as april snow!
Love . . . warm as candle glow!
Love . . . love is easy go!

Now we're ridin' a rainbow to cloudsville,
And we're makin' it like young!

< repeat last two lines twice to a whisper >
