Young Hearts Run Free
Kym Mazelle Harold Perrineau & Paul Sorvino Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 ("aahh haa")
Say I want to leave a thousand times a day
It's easier said that done
When I just can't break away ("just can't break away")

[Chorus]
Young hearts, run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man and me ("umm, my man and me")
Young hearts, to yourself be true
Don't be no fool with
When loving is all, there is ("say that don't love you")

It's high time just one crack at life
Who want to live in, trouble and strife
My mind must be free, to learn all I can about me

I'm gonna love me, for the rest of my days
Caress the babies every time they say
Self reservation is what's, really going on today ("aah, hooo")

Say I want to leave a thousand times a day
How can I turn loose
When I just can't break away ("just can't break away")





[Chorus: x2]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kym Mazelle's song "Young Hearts Run Free" speaks about a woman who is in a troubled relationship with a man who continuously cheats on her. She questions the purpose of staying in a relationship that only leads to her being a lost and lonely wife. The years pass and love only brings more tears and heartbreak. She may become a mother but she won't have her man since he is busy loving every woman he can find.


The chorus urges young hearts to run free, to not be hung up on a man, and to be true to themselves. She advises not to be a fool when it comes to love because sometimes when you love someone, they don't love you back. The woman wants to live life to the fullest and not be stuck in strife and trouble. She wants to be free to learn more about herself and to love herself for the rest of her days. She will take care of her children, but she knows that self-reservation is what's truly essential in today's world.


The song's lyrics convey a message that relationships can lead to heartbreak, but it's better to be true to oneself and find happiness from within. It's about finding self-love and not depending on someone else to complete you.

What's the sense in sharing, this one and only life
Endin' up, just another lost and lonely wife
You'll count up the years, and they will be filled with tears
Love only breaks up, to start over again
You'll get the baby, but you won't have your man
While he is busy loving every woman that he can, uh-huh
Say I'm gonna leave a hundred times a day
It's easier said than done
When you just can't break away (when you just can't break away)
Oh, young hearts run free
Never be hung up, hung up like my man 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
It's high time now just one crack at life
Who wants to live in, in trouble and strife
My mind must be free, to learn all I can about me, uh-hmm
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"
Say I'm gonna turn loose a thousand times a day
But how can I turn loose
When i just can't break away (when I just can't break away)
Oh, young hearts run free
They'll never be hung up, hung up like my man 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
Oh, young hearts run free
They'll never be hung up, hung up like my man 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
Oh, young hearts run free
They'll never be hung up, hung up like my man 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
