Look at the world, look at this earthly storm
Look at the People and how they rally on
So many claps of theirs turn to thunder
Their cries striking twice like lightning under
Don't look back, just look to the future
Young ones with an old charm to it
It gets confusing, it's a live wire sizzling
The air above as they smoke the skies
Signals crossed will at once alight
And align
Just for now all you need to be is young
Young like the spirits blooming
Like those girls that spin in the movies
Just for now all you need to be is young
It's enough to be alive and young
To be young, to be young with love
It's not just a trailer, this is the movie
The biggest picture that you're featured in
You have a foot in the past but your mind beats the present and the last
The war will carry on, for the beating hearts to come
You don't have to win them all just the one
Keep all your vintage records, play them, your anthem to come
Take your Polaroids and wave them high
Show them it didn't end in '69
Not for the last, the journey won't lose out
Take your spells and moon charms out
Just for now all you need to be is young
Young like the spirits blooming
Like those girls that spin in the movies
Just for now all you need to be is young
It's enough to be alive and young
To be young, to be young with love
To be young and free
To be young and dreaming
To be young and breathing
To be young with love
And all the stars in your skies
Crashing lips feeling like the 4th of July
Just for now all you need to be is young
Young like the spirits blooming
Like those girls that spin in the movies
Just for now all you need to be is young
It's enough to be alive and young
To be young, to be young with love
To be young
Be young again
Alive and
With
Love, again.
