When You’re Young

You can leave or you can stay
 But no one likes the one that got away
 Don't dare to dream, don't pretend
 If you think you're someone special, think again
 Everybody's getting married, get divorced, 'cause they ain't happy
 Now the kids just see their daddy on the weekends
 Buy a house and get a mortgage, sell it when you can't afford it
 It goes 'round and 'round and 'round, you just repeat it
 They say, "Hey
 Get a job and settle down, come on, girl, you've had your fun"
 "Hey
 Get a daughter and a son, that's just what you do here
 When you're young"
 You fall in love
 You think the first one is the one, so you hold on
 And when you're old, you want more
 And you'll regret all of the things you didn't do before
 Everybody's found their meaning
 That's the reason they don't see
 How it goes 'round and 'round and 'round
 You just repeat it
 They say, "Hey
 Get a job and settle down, come on, girl, you had your fun"
 "Hey
 Get a daughter and a son, that's just what you do here
 When you're young"
 Blame the world and everybody else
 For every heartbreak
 Hate it when somebody's doing well
 And all they say is-
 They say, "Hey
 Get a job and settle down, come on girl, you had your fun"
 "Hey
 Get a daughter and a son, that's just what you do here
 When you're young"
