Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Fairy tales can come true
It can happen to you
If you're young at heart
For it's hard, you will find
To be narrow of mind
If you're young at heart
[Verse 2]
You can go to extremes with impossible schemes
You can laugh when your dreams fall apart at the seams
And life gets more exciting with each passing day
And love is either in your heart or on its way
[Verse 3]
Don't you know that it's worth
Every treasure on earth
To be young at heart?
For as rich as you are
It's much better by far
To be young at heart
[Verse 4]
And if you should survive to a hundred and five
Look at all you'll derive out of being alive
And here is the best part
You had a head start
If you are among the very young at heart
[Verse 5]
And if you should survive to a hundred and five
Think of all you'll derive out of being alive
And here is the best part
You've had a head start
If you are among the very young at heart
