Select language to translate this lyric
Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket and a head full of dreams
He said somehow, some way, it's gotta get better than this
Patti packed her bags, left a note for her momma, she was just seventeen
there were tears in her eyes when she kissed her little sister goodbye
They held each other tight as they drove on through the night they were so exited
We got just one shot of life, let's take it while we're still not afraid
Because life is so brief and time is a thief when you're undecided
Like a fistful of sand, it can slip right through your hands
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let them put you down
Don't let 'em push you around
Don't let 'em ever change your point of view
Billy wrote a letter back home to Patti's parents tryin' to explain
He said we both feel sorry that it had to turn out this way
But there ain't no point in talking when there's nobody listening so we just ran away
Patti gave birth to a ten pound baby boy
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let them put you down
Don't let 'em push you around
Don't let 'em ever change your point of view
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
