Young Lovers

(album: Lesley Gore Sings Of Mixed-Up Hearts - 1963)

Hello, young lover, you ain't gonna get to my heart
Hello, young lover, you ain't gonna get to start

Everybody knows that
From the start
You've been nothing but a pro at
Breaking hearts
You know that everyone all over
Keeps repeating
That you're just a Casanova
With your cheating and your lies

Everyone around says you're from another town
That you're nothing but a playboy
Take my advice and think about it twice and
Go and find yourself another playtoy

You ain't a-gonna sell me
Don't even try
'Cause there's nothing you can tell me
To change my mind
'Cause you've left a trail behind you
And just you wait and see
In jail they're gonna find you
And then they'll throw away the key

Oh, goodbye, young lover, you ain't gonna get to my heart
I said, goodbye, young lover, you ain't gonna get to start

You ain't a-gonna sell me
Don't even try
'Cause there's nothing you can tell me
To change my mind
'Cause you've left a trail behind you
And just you wait and see
In jail they're gonna find you
And then they'll throw away the key

I said, goodbye, young lover, you ain't gonna get to my heart
Oh, goodbye, young lover, you ain't gonna get to start
