You Make Me Feel so Young
The Rat Pack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You make me feel so young
You make me feel as though Spring has sprung
And every time I see you grin
I'm such a happy individual

The moment that you speak
I want to go and play hide and seek
I wanna go and bounce the moon
Just like a toy balloon

You and I
Are just like a couple of tots
Running across a meadow
Pickin' up lots of forget me nots

You make me feel so young
You make me feel there are songs to be sung
Bells to be rung
And a wonderful fling to be flung

And even when I'm old and gray
I'm going to feel the way I do today
Because you make me feel so young

You make me feel so young
You make me feel as though spring has sprung
And every time I see you grin
I'm such a happy individual

The moment that you speak
I want to go and play hide and seek
I wanna go and bounce the moon
Just like a toy balloon

You and I
Are just like a couple of tots
Running across a meadow
Pickin' up lots of forget me nots

You make me feel so young
You make me feel there are songs to be sung
Bells to be rung
And a wonderful fling to be flung

And even when I'm old and gray
I'm going to feel the way I do today
Because you, you make me feel so young
You make me feel so young




You make me feel so young
Ooh you make me feel so young
