Tonight Im Yours

Rod Stewart Tonight Im Yours  Album

9.Young Turks

Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket and a head full
of dreams
He said, somehow, somewhere, it's gotta get better than this
Patty packed her bags, left a note for her mama, she was just 17
There were tears in her eyes when she kissed her little sister
goodbye
They held each other tight as they drove on through the night
They were so excited
We've got but one shot at life, let's take it while we're still
not afraid
Cause life is so brief, and time is a thief, when you're
undecided
And like a fist-full of sand, it can slip right through your
hands

Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let them put you down
Don't let them push you around
Don't never ever change your point of view

Paradise was closed, so they headed for the coast in a blissful
manner
They took a two-room apartment that was jumping every night of
the week
Happiness was found in each other's arms, as expected, yeah
Billy pierced his ears, and drove a pickup like a lunatic, ooh

Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let them put you down
Don't let them push you around
Don't never ever change your point of view

Billy wrote a letter back home to Patty's parents, trying to
explain
He said, we're both really sorry that it had to turn out this
way
But there ain't no point in talking when there's nobody
listening
So we just ran away
Patty gave birth to a ten-pound baby boy, yeah

Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
