We live in a house with a dollar in
his pocket and a head full of dreams.
He said,
somehow,
someway it's gotta get better than this.
Heidi packed her bags,
left a note for her mama,
she was just seventeen.
There were tears in her eyes when
she kissed her little sister goodbye.
They held each other tight as they drove them through the night,
they were so excited.
She got one shot at life,
let's take it while we're still not afraid.
Because life is so brief,
and time is a thief,
bring your undecided.
Unlock a fistful 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 let them ever change your point of view.
Paradise was closed,
so they headed for the coast in a blissful manner.
They took it to a roomed apartment that
was jumping every night of the week.
Happiness was found in each other's arms,
as expected.
Billy Pitsy's ears drove a pickup like a lunatic.
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 let them ever change your point of view.
Billy wrote a letter back home to Patty's parents,
trying to explain.
He said,
we both feel 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.
Young hearts, be free tonight.
Time
is on your side.
Time, time, time,
time is on your side,
is on your side,
is on your side.
Young hearts,
be free tonight.
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, yeah.
Time is on your side.
