Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I'm just a girl from the city

You came to me, like Calvary

And now, all I want is to hold you now

I've been saving my soul for someone like you

So, let's love while we're young

So, let's love before we've even begun

Oh, darling, we'll be fine

So, let's love while we're young

...

...

You were the girl that came with the sunrise

Long, brown hair and emerald eyes

And now, I can't think of a day without you

I've been saving my soul for someone like you

So, let's love while we're young

So, let's love before we've even begun

Oh, darling, we'll be fine

So, let's love while we're young

...

So, let's love while we're young

So, let's love before we've even begun

Oh, darling, we'll be fine

So, let's love while we're young

...
