Young At Heart
Landon Pigg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fairy tales can come true
It could happen to you if you're young at heart
For it's hard, you will find
To be narrow of mind if you're young at heart

You can go to extremes with impossible schemes
You can laugh while your dreams fall apart at the seams
And life gets more exciting with each passing day
And love is either in your heart or it's on its way

Don't you know that it's worth
Every treasure on earth to be young at heart
For as rich as you are
It's much better by far to be young at heart

And if you should survive to a hundred and five
Look at all you'll derive out of being alive
And here is the best part, you have a head start




If you are among the very young at heart, heart
Young at heart
