I recall us sneaking across the tracks

We were young at heart

And our minds were filled with ease

We read the writings on the walls there

And we laughed at all the silly things they said

We figured it had something to do with politics

About how wanting everything is not a crime

Now our fathers are coming out here to get us

And they will brings us home

And they will be angry at us at best



You were making me feel

Like the youngest man alive

Can't someone write a book about it?

I'm the youngest man alive

Now morning is here 

And we've said our first goodbye



I recall us sneaking across the tracks

We must have talked about this 

A million times or more

I still remember the words that you whispered

You said we will fall, no matter what we do

There will be no understanding

‘Cause we stole this love and we didn't even ask

Now our fathers are coming out here to get us

And they will bring us home 

And they will be angry at us at best



You were making me feel

Like the youngest man alive

Can't someone write a book about it? 

I'm the youngest man alive

Now morning is here 

And we've said our first goodbye
