When You’re Young

You can leave or you can stay

But no one likes the one that got away

Don't dare to dream

Don't pretend

If you think you're someone special

Think again

Everybody's getting married

Get divorced cause they ain't happy

Now the kids just see their daddy on the weekends

Buy a house and get a mortgage

Sell it when you can't afford it

It goes round and round and round

You just repeat it they say hey

Hey get a job and settle down

Come on girl you had your fun hey

Get a daughter and a son

That's just what you do here when you're young

You fall in love

You think the first one is the one

So you hold on

And when you're old

You'll want more

And you'll regret

All of the things you didn't do before

Everybody's found their meaning

That's the reason they don't see how

It goes round and round and round

You just repeat it they say hey hey

Get a job and settle down

Come on girl you had your fun hey

Get a daughter and a son

That's just what you do here when you're young

Gain the world and everybody else

For every heartbreak

Hate it when somebody's doing well

And all they say is they say hey

Get a job and settle down

Come on girl you had your fun hey

Get a daughter and a son

That's just what you do here when you're young
