Wild Heart of the Young Lyrics

These days when I take a look behind
I think about you and all that time
We were as one
Kids on the run

CHORUS
I loved you like I'll never love another
With the wild heart of the young
But it took until now to uncover
Oh, if I'd only known it then

You spoke of the dream we made come true
I remember how I looked up to you
It was there in your touch
You knew so much

CHORUS

Well, they watched while you broke all the rules
And everyone thought I was your fool
But I paid the price
Never even thought twice

CHORUS

If I thought about all the loves
I knew I know they'd all fade except for you
And someday you'll see how much you taught me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
