YOUNG AT HEART Lyrics

So you're out to change the world
You can do it none too fast
You don't want to see your future
Wash away into the past
Now a change is gonna come...
Say it's written on the streets
But there's a monkey on your back
...Try to put him on a shelf
And you try to find in others
What you hide inside yourself
And you worry 'bout the war
And you try to understand
But forget about tomorrow
When you're playin' in the band
Stay young at heart
Stay young at heart
Now you've been around the world
Seen the shape of things to come
You begin to feel the damage
From the crazy things we've done
Now the lines are overdrawn
...See 'em bleedin' down your face
And there's a sore and scary monster...
She's-a comin' after you
Stay young at heart
Stay young at heart
You can't be too wise
So open your eyes
Stay young at heart...yea
Now you're weary from the war
But it's time to start again
And you don't know what you're fightin' for
But you'll fight until the end
Now forget about the future
Don'tcha try to understand
There's no need to fear tomorrow
Just keep playin' in the band
Stay young at heart
Stay young at heart
You can't be too wise
So open your eyes
Stay young...stay young
Stay young at heart
