LYRICS

“Young Man’s Dream”

I left my home when I was 17

My feet were dirty but my soul was clean

I was looking for a young man’s dream...it seems

I found her living up in Illinois

She brought me sorrow and she brought me joy

Treated me just like a rubber toy...Oh boy

Don’t take long to fall in love

Take a little time to get back where you're from

Looking at the world through electric eyes

Feel like I died...woke up in paradise

Life is over ‘fore it all begins

If you’re looking for a way back in

You can say you knew me way back when...Back when

Don’t take long to fall in love

Take a little time to get back where you're from

Looking at the world through electric eyes

Feel like I died...woke up in paradise

I left my home when I was 17

My feet were dirty but my soul was clean

I’m still looking for that young man’s dream...it seems
