Juanita du Plessis Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I call your name, I hear your voice
I'm so insane
It hurts so bad, you know it does
My heart's aflame

I want you to show me
The way to your heart
Watchin' you is all I can do

Young hearts, flyin' away, young hearts
You always stay, young hearts
It's all I ever wanted, love

Young hearts, sailing away, young hearts
So far away, young hearts
Watchin' you is all I do
All I do

I'm on my own, once again, yeah one more time
Ooh you set me free from love again, but I don't know why
I want you to show me the way to your heart
Holding you is all I wanna do

Young hearts, flyin' away, young hearts
You always stay, young hearts
It's all I ever wanted, love

Young hearts, sailing away, young hearts
So far away, young hearts
Watchin' you is all I do
All I do

But if you love me then show me the way (Show me the way)
Show me the way to your heart
And when I'm there will you please let me in (Please let me in)
To your heart, to your heart

Young hearts, flyin' away, young hearts
You always stay, young hearts
It's all I ever wanted, love

Young hearts sailing away, young hearts
So far away, young hearts
Watchin' you is all I do
All I do

Oh young hearts
