And while the city sleeps

I won't weep because I didn't keep

My boyfriend and the summer's end is here again

And the leaves are golden

Under the grand silver birch tree While we're thinking 'bout the people we meet

Dancing feet, wasters on the cover of a magazine

People you've kissed, people you lust

And the one's that you might not

Ever remember, what's the use? I'm not what I was last summer

Not who I was in the spring

Tell me, tell me, tell me when will we learn

We love it and we leave it and we watch it burn

Damn these wild young hearts

Damn these wild young hearts Now that the city's awake, my heart aches

Oh, what a silly mistake it seems I've made

You left your keys under my bed

Left a thumping in my head

I would say sorry, what's the use? 'Cause, I'm not what I was last September

And I don't wear the same robes in May

We know we shouldn't do it, but we do it anyway

We know we might regret it but it seemed okay Damn these wild young hearts

Damn these wild young hearts

Damn these wild young hearts If now is forever then what's to prove

'Cause it won't be the same next summer

And I guess I'll see you in the spring

Somebody tell me, tell me, tell me, when will I learn

I love it and I leave it and I watch it burn Damn this wild young heart

I told you damn this wild young heart

Damn this wild young

Tell me, tell me, tell me when will I learn

Damn this wild young heart
