(van morrison)
Originally contained in van morrison's astral weeks
We...
We strolled through fields all wet with rain
And back along the lane again
There in the sunshine
In the sweet summertime
Oh the way that young lovers do
I kissed you on the lips once more
We said goodbye at your front door
There in the nighttime
Love, that's the right time
Oh to feel the way that young lovers do
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the
Way that we wanted to be
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that i was for you
And that you were for me
And then we long to dance the night away
And turned to each other saying 'i love you, baby i love you'
Oh the way that young lovers do
Oh the way...
Oh the way that young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers do
The way young lovers...
Now won't you love me the way young lovers do
Oh won't you love me the way that young lovers do
Oh the way...
Won't you love me the way that young lovers do
It's so close
I can't feel you
Take your time on my body
Aren't you weird of going crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy...
And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were and the way
That we wanted to be
And we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that i was for you
And that you were for me
Oh, baby, babe
Then we long to dance the night away
And turned to each other saying 'i love you, baby, i love you'
Oh, yes...
[the following are two verses of ivo by the cocteau twins]
Peep hole, peach blow, pandora, pompadour
Pale leaf, pink sweet, persephone
I held her with her looking down
And i kissed her, with the snow falling down
There in the street light
Oh, it was a sweet night
And the way that young lovers do
Oh, the way that young lovers do
Oh the way that young... oh
Oh the ways you do, yes it's you... yes
[the following are some verses of that's all i ask by nina simone]
Oh, don't try to blow out the sun from me, baby
Oh, and i'm hopin' for what i know can't be
All that i ask is for your kiss each day
And i'll give you love that will never go away
I'll give you love that will never go away
Oh the way that young lovers do
