[Verse 1]
Billy left his home with a dollar in his pocket
And a head full of dreams
He said "Somehow, someway
It's gotta get better than this"
Patti packed her bags
Left a note for her mama
She was just seventeen
There were tears in her eyes
When she kissed her little sister goodbye
[Verse 2]
They held each other tight
As they drove on through the night
They were so excited
We got but one shot at 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
And like a fistful of sand
It can slip right through your hands
[Chorus]
Young hearts be free tonight
Time is on your side
Don't let 'em put you down
Don't let 'em push you 'round
Don't let 'em ever change your point of view
