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
