"Young Hearts Run Free" lyrics

What's the sense in sharing this one and only life
Ending up just another lost and lonely wife?
You count up the years, and they will be filled with tears
Love only breaks up to start over again
You'll get the babies, but you won't have your man
While he is busy loving every woman that he can

Say I'm gonna leave a hundred times a day
It's easier said than done when you just can't break away
(Just can't break away)

Young hearts run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me
(You and me) My man and me
Oh, young hearts, to yourself, be true
Don't be no fool when love really don't love you
(Don't love you) Don't love you

It's high time now, just one crack at life
Who wants to live it in trouble and strife?
My mind must be free to learn all I can about me, oh
I'm gonna love me for the rest of my days
Encourage the babies every time they say
Self-preservation is what's really going on today
Oh, yeah

I say I'm gonna leave a thousand times a day
How can I turn loose? I just can't break away
(Just can't break away)

Oh, young hearts run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me
(You and me) You and me
Oh, young hearts, to yourself, be true
Don't be no fool when love really don't love you
(Don't love you) Don't love you

Young hearts run free
Gonna be free
(Young hearts run free, don't you wanna be free?)
I wanna be free now
(Young hearts run free, don't you wanna be free?)
Gonna be
(Young hearts run free, don't you wanna be free?)
Free now

Oh, young hearts run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me
You and me, baby (You and me, baby)
Oh, young hearts, to yourself, be true
Don't be no fool when love really don't, don't love you
(Don't love you) No, it don't love you
Oh, young hearts run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me
(My man and me) Oh, you and me
Oh, oh, young hearts, to yourself, be true
Don't be no fool, you know love really don't, don't love you
