Young Love

when I was twenty two the day that I met you
when you took my hand through the night
it was getting late and you asked me to stay
and hold you until we see light
you shut the door and turn the lights off
and put up your dukes tonight

cause this love is getting dangerous and I need some more tonight
your touch is contagious you know what I need tonight
I can't run and I can't hide
I'll be wasted by the light
I'm undone but I'm alive
don't ever wanna see the morning light

when I was young in love when you were everything
we'd stay up and drink through the night
laying on the roof I put my hands on you
you said our love will never die
you shut the door and turn the lights off
and put up your dukes tonight

cause this love is getting dangerous and I need some more tonight
your touch is contagious you know what I need tonight
I can't run and I can't hide
I'll be wasted by the light
I'm undone but I'm alive
don't ever wanna see the morning light

and if we go down with this ship
we go down together
and if we should die tonight
it's you and me forever
forever you and I
together until we die
and I'll be right next to you
even on the other side

cause this love is getting dangerous and I need some more tonight
your touch is contagious you know what I need tonight
I can't run and I can't hide
I'll be wasted by the light
I'm undone but I'm alive
don't ever wanna see the morning light
