Young Love Lyrics - Kim Carnes

(Gary O'Commer) 

Jenny loves John 

But he doesn't care 

Now that he loves another 

I know that he's been getting his share 

Sometimes want to tell her 

But I wouldn't dare 

And tonight when she calls 

She won't know that I'm there 

Remember the nights 

The thing that we said 

And when we climbed in the back 

Love was driving me out of my head 

And I want to tell you 

May lightning strike me dead 

If he wasn't the best love I ever had 

It was young love running wild 

It was young love, only young love 

Like a child, it was young love 

Young love, only young love 

Running wild and running free 

Waiting for the night 

It falls in the street 

She's just a young girl learning 

Moving in, shaking at the knees 

Now don't say forever, just say what you need 

Love was never a stranger 

When he called on me 

It was young love running wild 

It was young love, only young love 

Like a child, it was young love 

Young love, only young love 

Running wild and running free 

Jenny loves John 

But he doesn't care 

Now that he loves another I know he's been getting his share 

Sometimes want to tell her 

But I wouldn't dare 

And tonight when she calls 

She won't know that I'm there 

It was young love running wild 

It was young love, only young love 

Like a child, it was young love 

Young love, only young love 

Running wild and running free
