when you're young and so and love as we  and bewildered by the world we see  how can people hurt us so  only those in love would know  what a town without pity can do    if we stop to gaze upon a star  people talk about how bad we are  how can we keep love alive  how can anything survive  when these little minds tear you in two  what a town without pity can do    the young have problems many problems  we need an understanding heart  why don't they help us try to help us  before this clay and granite planet falls apart    take these eager lips and hold me fast  i'm afraid this kind of joy can't last  how can we keep love alive  how can anything survive  when these little minds tear you in two  what a town without pity can do
